I don’t think so, reddit was so dominant that had they simply not decided to anger all their power users, we’d all still be on there like nothing had changed. A good platform has staying power, I’ve been on Steam for 16 years and I have no plans of bailing on it because it’s simply the best gaming platform I’ve ever used. It’s not game lock-in or anything, most of my games I could buy elsewhere or pirate, I just like having the features and all these other ones popping up like GOG Galaxy still aren’t overtaking it despite the good PR.
Capitalism killed it. That’s how things go. They are great for a while then get too big and have to keep growing for some reason. The pursuit of perpetual growth ruins everything

Yahoo answers held on for decades after it was relevant, I’m sure Reddit will be around in 15 years.
Sadly, Remindbot will be reminding a ghost town populated only by other bots
Even Digg is still around these days
Lol
