IMVHO the sole Reddit (and HN) alternative is Usenet. For a reason: an "alternative" witch is essentially a clone of a platform with the same model (platform owner + users) is not an alternative. It's like when people rush out of GutHub after Microsoft purchase as Microsoft is a different beast than the previous owner and another company, like GitLab is "a better alternative". Usenet is an alternative because: - no one own "the platform" - anyone can have hes/shes own messages on a personal iron That's is. An alternative is something different that do the same thing IMO, not a clone or almost a clone with just a different owner or dress.
