Quick follow-up: just started seeing the name "tildes" pop up in the past week or so. One of the potential alternatives that's been mentioned. Then, saw an article yesterday that, to me, implied, that tildes has a very similar model to reddit.
Finally checked it out - this service, apparently set up in 2018 (!) has one of the types of structures that fits. In fact, the introductory blog post (https://blog.tildes.net/announcing-tildes https://blog.tildes.net/announcing-tildes) seems ... "prophetic". Not so much in terms of stating anything many didn't know at the time, but, more in the sense of a sort of anachronism like: this sounds like it was probably written in the past two weeks.
So, FYI - "tildes.net" seems a very fitting low-friction (to move to) alternative that's already been running for multiple years and where more and more "reddit refugees" seem to be showing up.
Code's open source etc., as well.
