Between them Reddit and Macrumors have almost all the useful public information for macOS users, music producers, video creators, colourists. Handing Google the keys to Reddit will be trouble. I'm not quite sure what kind of trouble, but deep trouble.

The SEO spamslaught which will start now will be part of the issue, Google will also work to make visible on Reddit what they like and make invisible what they don't like. Money talks and Reddit was already big on censorship. A more independent public space is what we need, not a more moderated and beholden prison yard.
