Atlantic article positive about Reddit

https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2025/04/reddit-culture-community-credibility/681765/

"Strange things are happening online these days. Strange bad, clearly. But also strange good. One unexpected development is that Reddit, long dogged by a reputation for mischief and mayhem, has achieved a kind of mass appeal. If you ask your friends where they’ve been hanging out online lately, you’re likely to hear some of them say Reddit, actually, perhaps with a tinge of surprise."

Thoughts?

It sounds like that's not a thing anymore
