- mtreis86 3y agoI'm still sore about google music, let alone reader. Each of those led me to de-google my tech stack a bit. Won't take much more for me to break clean away.
- Sebb767 3y agoReddit is still very much alive and well. It might have lost some of the nerd userbase (through a lot of them still put up with their antics while telling themselves that they will stop doing so if old.reddit.com is shut down), but it got the mainstream(-ish) userbase instead, which is not only a larger market, but also one which is easier to monetize.

I know it's fun to think you're the centre of the universe while you're the age you are, but Facebook, Reddit — hell even _T.V._ in some form — will all be still around well after your generation is being told _you're_ irrelevant by the new kids.
