specifically it seems to be the only one trying to replicate the concept of communities. reddit is, at it's core, a place where people can host a community discussion board. the front page is just a very shallow window into that. all the reddit-alikes seem focused on reproducing the front page. something like tildes (or non.io at the top of HN right now) looks really cool, but it's just one community. you can filter and categorize all you want, but for any post there's just one discussion for the whole site to share. that's not a reddit replacement, it's a replacement for one subreddit, with some extra filtering tools bolted on.
