Reddit 8 years ago was like HN now. I would learn a lot from discussions, and there was no concept of subreddits.
Later, I remember being shocked to hear some co-workers who I considered kind of dumb, discussing reddit-this, reddit-that a few years ago.
I occasionally visit reddit these days, but it's more as a reminder that I live in a bubble and that there's all kinds of people. It's fascinating. People are just tragically stupid, and yet the world sort of works.
I wonder whether this is what the Eternal September felt like.
