I've been seeing a lot of angst and emotion on the Reddit migration, which results in either defeatism or blind optimism. In the end, it probably doesn't matter, but I wanted to do more fact-based research into the subject.

I put my findings and my analysis into what it would actually take to kill Reddit, based on the deaths of Digg and MySpace. tl;dr it's a lot less dramatic than most people would think.

Good article. Just going to say it again here. Forget about killing Reddit. Just stop using it, and tell people about the alternatives. Enjoy this peaceful time in the fediverse while it lasts.

I don't know how to save the posts that really resonate and reground me outside of commenting on it. This is one of those posts. Thank you.

Agreed, we need a save feature!

There is one! At least on the mobile site, tapping the three dots on the right shows more options, one of them is to save.

Lenny seems a bit more feature complete than kbin at this time. We are still catching up :)

My mistake, I didn't even realise I was on a Kbin thread! It's fantastic that we're able to choose how we want to interact with the Fediverse like this
