I think Reddit has become too mainstream to die. I think it will simply continue to become mainstream, perhaps eventually become more like Twitter in terms of userbase. and the next generation of niche forums will be born, and therefor the next Reddit. But maybe I'm wrong, maybe reddit will 'never die.'
Possible it'll go the direction of Neopets and stuff. Still around, but not what it once was.
Even Digg is still around. But I think most people agree that it is "dead." Reddit will probably end up the same.
Hell, even MySpace is still around.
It did go away for awhile, though, and it took several attempted restarts before finally sticking on something that gained enough traction to (I assume) pay for itself.
