@adactio I’ll bite; why? Reddit has opened citizen journalism up. Secret, okay, agreed. YC? He didn’t get involved till much later.
Listening to @AlexisOhanian, unleasher of some of my least-favourite things on the internet: Reddit, Secret, YCombinator.

@adactio @alexisohanian Wow, that’s disappointing Jeremy (re: reddit). If you’re in SF sometime I’d love to have you come by and talk.
@adactio I like his work. Reddit’s had its issues, but remains a strong community. Breadpig’s awesome. And he didn’t start YC or Secret.
@waxpancake @adactio Reddit is not one community. It’s a set of tools that a wide variety of people have used to create many communities.
@waxpancake @adactio To once again quote @dweinberger, the internet simply makes us more of what we are. That’s not really Reddit’s fault.
@chrisdary I’d be happy to. I think I might be in town in November.
@adactio Great—I’ll put an email reminder for myself to ping you late October.
@adactio @alexisohanian Sorry to miss it, the tweets are interesting #psuweb
@adactio what’s up with the Reddit digs today? Did I miss something?
@adactio I’m Armenian — lowercase “h”
@alexisohanian Apologies. Updated: adactio.com/notes/6858/
@adactio thanks, we’re pretty proud of our culture. also: i’m an investor in secret, not founder. and I was invested in by YC, didn’t found.
@adactio hopefully some of the 500,000 communities on reddit are to your liking. a platform is that, a platform, like twitter, etc.
