Comment on Plebbit is a peer-to-peer Reddit alternative that allows you to self host and own your own community

Unfortunately, that seems to be how things go.
That said, I am working on my own Reddit alternative, which at least keeps me out of trouble. If it ever goes big, it’ll get squashed by the big tech companies, but at least I’ll have the satisfaction of building something cool.
