I'd love to apply for 20-things.com. Would this be a waste of time, given the interest YC board has in Reddit?

You should apply. Whether there are companies we've already funded doing something similar is not a factor in our decisions.
Thank you, glad to hear it, that helps a lot!
They've invested in reddit competitors before. Such as 9Gag.
Makes me wonder, does YC still have any Reddit equity?
They sold to Conde Nast and the spun out, so probably not, actually!
