Reddit still has niches that (unfortunately) exist nowhere else, probably won't exist anywhere else soon due to the need for foot traffic, and are tolerable as long as old.reddit.com stays up.
And it's the lesser evil over Discord.
Lemmy is of course 1000x better, but it doesn't matter if your niche there is a ghost town.
I only lurk on Reddit these days, but if old reddit goes away I'll be completely done with it.
anything worth value, is 3 > 4 years old, and all those users are "deleted".
if google and duck duck go stop indexing old.redd, I'll probably never see it again.
