this seems doubtful to me. Reddit has tons of legendary threads, AMAs and is its own library of content at this point, similar to YouTube. Sure the tech could be replicated but the value is all in the content it generated.
- wintermutestwin 5y agoMaybe that points to a way they could make $: curate and make anthologies of the actually valuable content. /r/askhistorians content could be turned into a few history books. Of course, then people might start looking at the fact that they are giving away valuable property to Reddit in return for access to a simple forum site...
- BeFlatXIII 5y agoThere are plenty of Reddit archiving and mirroring services. Pay one of those for a database dump and you’re off to the races (copyright issues be damned)
