:I think, regardless, there needs to be some kind of reputable source (a tech magazine who've looked into it, or something like that) before it can be added to the article. If a source corroborated those findings though, it could 100% be something that gets added to the Reddit article. [[User:Keith|Keith]] ([[User talk:Keith|talk]]) 23:49, 4 May 2026 (UTC)

== Market Competition ==

Are Imgur, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram really competing with Reddit? I'd say that reddit is different enough as a social media platform (with subreddits and splitting topics into different communities) that it should be noted as not a direct competitor to these platforms. My hope is that someone could see that and be inspired to make a reddit-like network that has more freedom as a platform. Also, I think would be a lot easier for people to move from reddit to some other reddit-like platform than it was for people to move from X to Bluesky/Threads/whatever else because theres less of a need to move a followerbase like there was on X, so theres some motivation to do it, i just think it needs to be known that its possible. What do you guys think about not only the edit but the topic as a whole? [[User:Ketoro|Ketoro]] ([[User talk:Ketoro|talk]]) 10:22, 1 July 2026 (UTC)
