Hopefully this blows up and Reddit IPO gets cancelled

Well, I mean let's be realistic. This is never going to kill reddit (though it might lower the content quality quite a bit). Don't underestimate how many people just don't care, who just want to scroll and read in their favorite subs. The people already using the official app. Those people aren't going anywhere.

But I'm sort of very okay with that, to be honest. We don't need ALL reddit users to come here. I've noticed I like the quiet here. Comments won't get snowed over within 3 minute, people seem to be more polite and decent, commenting on posts older than a day is still 'viable.' These are all positives in my book.

There's a ton of people who don't care. Like Mastodon exists, but Twitter is still chugging. Reddit's communities are a bit more organized, but time will tell if it translates into transition. Niche subreddits seem to be continuing
