Yeah, this time around does feel more promising than the last one, though admittedly I only have a basic idea of how this one works. I'm curious how things like user security and comment coherency work that don't leave doors open for abuse by a rogue admin or result in split communities. Or user abuse where this ends up in the target sights of entities like the RIAA or FBI.
Especially considering Reddit's best path to a profitable IPO would be to get these alternatives shut down and stall their momentum in the hopes of attracting back some users after anger fades.
And there's also the question of whether Elon ruining Twitter and spez ruining Reddit at around the same time are coincidence, spez taking advantage of Elon's mistakes to do an unpopular move himself, or part of a pattern of shutting down the large audience social media sites.
So if there are flaws to exploit, it wouldn't surprise me to see them exploited.
I'm feeling cautiously optimistic overall though.
Elon was an inspiration for spez IIRC. Here's hoping both their platforms rot.
