Flickr vs Reddit
Flickr started first, in 2004, 1 year before Reddit.
Why Flickr lasted
- Photographers who refuse Instagram still have originals there.
- SmugMug bought it to keep the archive from rotting. That is love as life support.
Why Reddit lasted
- It is the comment section of the internet, and Google still sends people there for the human thread.
- Subreddits are institutions. They migrate slower than apps.
