pcpartpicker.com spun off from /r/buildapc and seems to be doing really well. Of course it isn't a direct competitor, and they are still very heavily involved with the subreddit, so maybe there's some learning there.

There's a fast growing ecosystem of Reddit-adjacent sites and services out there, which I think is a much more interesting business model than direct replacement.

I remember that. When I first saw it, I thought, surely this won't last, surely, there will be a 101 competitors in no time. Cause it is such a seemingly easy concept to replicate.
