Imho they should start migrating. Maybe not now or immediately, but gradually. Reddit has shown its hand. I don't think they'll go back to their roots in the foreseeable future.

Definitely agree. I am using both now and I hope as more communities make their way here I can reduce how much I use reddit because it's full of rage bait for me.

I'm just not wanting to wish it go dead and have a lot of people lose access to something they really cared about.

Demonstrated by the other post I made in this thread, Reddit has been showing its hand for a very long time but the analogy of frogs in pans of boiling water comes to mind with the user base.

Reddit will never go back to its roots of being 3 guys at college with an idea for a site. It will always be the money craving corporate beast its evolved into.
