Good riddance
Hard to see this as anything but a good thing, Reddit is such a cesspool.
It's still one of the rare places where public discussion is happening. There is simply no alternative.
There's a lot of good troubleshooting and tech info on there, though. I've run into multiple tech issues over the years that aren't documented in bug reports, change logs, etc., but some random person on Reddit will have a post where they investigated the cause and found a solution.
And quite often a thread isn't just a problem and a solution but the set of steps to get to the destination. Even if it's not the exact same issue the process is useful.
This is most likely a good thing for both platforms
It’s also just unreliable; people complain about Wikipedia being user edited but Reddit is so often just nonsense. It’s what the collective wants to be real, not what’s actually real
A very small, specific and highly correlated slice of the collective, though.
