I’ve been seeing a lot of angst and emotion on the Reddit migration, which results in either defeatism or blind optimism. In the end, it probably doesn’t matter, but I wanted to do more fact-based research into the subject.

I put my findings and my analysis into what it would actually take to kill Reddit, based on the deaths of Digg and MySpace. tl;dr it’s a lot less dramatic than most people would think.

      Nothing you said refutes anything I said. My point was that reddit has value even if all the humans leave. Digg was sold, implying value, yes?

      There will never be some end of the road, flipping the giant breaker on reddit’s servers movie scene death. It will live on in some form no matter the outcome of the current drama.

      Of course digg.com is a wildly different place today, the entire world is a different place today…
