I believe their open source copy is no longer maintained. https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/6xh3xp/reddits_main_code_is_no_longer_opensource/ https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/6xh3xp/reddits...

You could potentially build it on Reddit's code base if you wanted... but you have to build that somehow. Network effects prevent that from forming and from people leaving existing communities.
