Reddit is a low-quality platform, the sorts of people who would be interested in moderating a popular subreddit like r/programming are even less fit to be moderators than the average moderator is. It would be better if people completely stopped using the platform.

It's useful for syndicating your self-hosted blog content so that when people Google topics your stuff shows up.

I generally fire-and-forget on Reddit, except for more niche communities where sometimes domain experts actually comment

I mean, I don't really like the platform either. But what kind of alternatives that have the same number of traction do we have?
