Am I the only one having a mini existential crisis for the fact the Reddit is dying? (reddthat.com)

Like for the past few years, browsing reddit is basically a daily routine for me. Now Reddit is dying, I feel like a part of me died. A website filled with many years of content... will soon be gone. I heard rumours that they are planning to purge the site of "undesirable" content before their IPO. I fear same thing will happen to youtube. I don't have the resources to save all the content online, and watching sites die is painful. Reddit's death triggered my fear for losing all those amazing youtube channels that I occasionally binge rewatch. (Does anyone else rewatch youtube videos over and over on a weekly basis? Maybe I'm just weird.

So this is what the internet is? Just a cycle of sites being born and dying, just like humans being born and dying. Omg whats the meaning of life...

Umm... sorry for the weird existential monologue. Lol
