What reddit became was actually because it was a centralised place. Everybody had be on one platform with just one account and easily connect and the platform was cared for and tended (albeit with VC money and eventually that became the undoing it). Anyway with this fragmentation I doubt we will get anywhere. Users will be scattered across non-federated silos (and not in a good "different special interest corners of the Internet" way, but just lost and disconnected). If it was easily doable on fediverse I'd have loved that but it is not. I am just happy Facebook and Instagram are not going to be that place. I would rather root for the return of forum era - maybe not federated. But then that kind of forum thing gave birth to one giant Reddit (I was a pre-teen back then so do not clearly remember how it started; so maybe this is totally incorrect).
