For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.
That assumes the mods do. I fear reddit will turn into another tinypic situation. even if it isn’t an image host there will be pages of answers on forums and stack exchange pointing to dead reddit links. The fustration of finding a 10 year old forum post of someone having the same issue as you only to have the only answer point to a dead link is incredible.
