That is drastically overselling our success here.
Reddit will survive this. It'll be a worse Reddit, with slightly more reposts, slightly less OC. Some percentage will move on, and a percentage of that percentage will move here.
If we manage to build communities that have enough people to be engaging, that is a win. We will not kill Reddit, and anyone who believes that needs to readjust their expectations.
Yeah "all the creators moved here" is a bit optimistic
I wholeheartedly agree with your statement. But I believe in small steps. I haven’t been on Reddit since the API announcement on /r/Apollo. I won’t be back, I absolutely love the idea of a platform that isn’t owned by someone - in the same way I love an open source project.
