Reddit had a good run for over a decade, but as always with the internet, now a better thing will take its place.

As always with the internet... a better thing takes it's place?

Friend. That isn't usually the standard.

I still mourn Portal of Evil. It was my reddit before reddit.

my pre internet was Sensible Erection. which also got destroyed through a lack of care. eventually it was dying and I moved to Reddit. Lemmy is my Reddit methadone.

Reddit was a major part of my day for almost 8 years.
