Some of us VCR clock-setters are on Lemmy already due to the combination of us loving playing with tech and the attitude of "fuck you I won't do what you tell me". I've seen the fall of the original BBSs, Prodigy, Compuserve, AOL, Geocities, MySpace, Yahoo, Digg, Facebook, and here I sit watching Reddit's behavior with a bag of popcorn. If they don't backpedal, they'll get their IPO, Spez will get his money, and the shell of what Reddit was will continue to exist like MySpace and Facebook. It will strive to stay relevant while slowly becoming more and more irrelevant over time as the newcomer gains steam. Will Lemmy be that newcomer taking over? I'm not sure but it sure is fun to watch the world burn sometimes.
