I never knew any component of Reddit was ever open-source? But yeah, that AMA was so bleak. I'm enjoying Lemmy a lot right now, so maybe I can do without Reddit.
It's just that Reddit has been like my one cultural constant in the last decade. I have ADHD, so I tend to go through phases of things but the sheer diversity of Reddit and all the years of history of the site meant that it's been a really big part of my life. I know that's probably similar for a lot of other folks.
@WatTyler @Sailor_jets #Reddit used to be #FOSS years ago, and there's an archived version of their code here:

IDK if anybody's actually using it to host a forum site though.
Wow, I legit never knew. Thanks for the link, that's really interesting.
