I’ve never been sentimental about a social media site but it’s sad for me to see reddit so clearly killing itself. Pushshift is already banned and Apollo is soon to follow. Reddit will either pivot fully to a mainstream audience or die out. It’s just sad for me to see it doing it to itself.
Can we also have a moment of silence for all the other great link sites that have died?
Stumbleupon, kuro5hin, digg, fark (still exists technically but as a shell of its former self)
What was your favorite before reddit?
Slashdot isn’t really dead though is it? Still very active, just, not as popular perhaps.
