Look at nostr. The beauty of being a protocol that shapes into twitter-style, forum-style, blog or upvotting reddit with the same text protocol underneath.

I guess the big innovation is owning your data and identity for a change. Those who invested in reddit for decades are now without chance to save their own data, at least without a way to move it elsewhere public.

For me, hopefully nothing. I did get some value out of reading and participating in discussions there, but I don't think it makes up for all the time spent.

We could all go back to Digg.
