I think we’re guilty of thinking that the number of people who think the way we do is larger than it is.

I don’t think that this is going to mean much to Reddit over the short to medium term. They literally have hundreds of millions of users. Reddit’s death will probably be slow, maybe in the same way as Facebook.

Honestly, I think the best hope for the fediverse is something like Hackernews or Stack Exchange…a robust community using a viable or future-proof platform.
