The difference being different time and different mindset. Ppl are used to updates and self hosting and looking at code more so now than during the age of Google chat. There is still jit.si out there as well. I wouldn't say it could never happen, but we will see. I wouldn't of expected a company like reddit to commit suicide but only time will tell
How are people used to looking at code now more than then?
They aren't. Sure there might be a bigger segment of programmers but they will always be a miniscule minority compared to the general population and we are dependent on the general population for the majority of memes.
Maybe. Even if we are aware of things more now than then, we're still pretty lazy. Reddit had to behave very badly in the end to cause any kind of schism.
