Reddit, for all of its flaws, ~~is still~~ was one of the last true communities on the internet.
- Definitely.. but when doors close new ones open. Nothing wrong with having new communities to visit and engage with.

  Not gonna lie, where I was mildly satisfied/entertained with Reddit, having squabble, kbin and tildes, sorting on all on new across all the sites is still kinda not enough interesting content, for me personally. I'm sure day by day it will get better. it's already more interactive and feels more welcome across the board to add to the conversation, just don't get those big full comment sections that take time to work through and keep my brain from being aware of my surroundings.
- Reddit, for all of its flaws, once hosted some communities on the Internet.
  
  Of all the communities on the internet, Reddit was definitely one.
