And that's a perfectly acceptable outcome! If Reddit dies like Digg, Tumblr, and now Twitter have done, then I'm okay with that and I imagine that most of us here are too. If Reddit's new mods are low quality, then illegal content will become more prevalent and they'll risk, at the very least, public censure for their enabling of [insert illegal stuff here.] But you're right... Reddit is not likely to die overnight. It'll take time measured in years.
It's funny because now Digg.com artcles might get 15 comments. I remember when it was an actual social media site and not just another blog. ๐
So you're saying that Reddit is going to Digg a similar hole? (So sorry)
