It was sort of ambitious for people to think they’d be on reddit with the same account in 20 years
I don’t think so, reddit was so dominant that had they simply not decided to anger all their power users, we’d all still be on there like nothing had changed. A good platform has staying power, I’ve been on Steam for 16 years and I have no plans of bailing on it because it’s simply the best gaming platform I’ve ever used. It’s not game lock-in or anything, most of my games I could buy elsewhere or pirate, I just like having the features and all these other ones popping up like GOG Galaxy still aren’t overtaking it despite the good PR.
Yahoo answers held on for decades after it was relevant, I’m sure Reddit will be around in 15 years.
Sadly, Remindbot will be reminding a ghost town populated only by other bots
Oh man, this bums me out.
Don’t worry, the bot will still respond and it will get 10,000 upvotes from other bots and replies like “grond” and “15 years is 7889400 minutes” and “pass me the breastplate stretcher!” and the one real person left on reddit will smile and think “I love being part of such a large and thriving online community”.
Awww, man.
Now I’m sad.
Thanks a lot, @orion2145. Not cool.
I’m right there with you. Can’t unthink it.
