Anyone reading this can spin a discord namespace ("guild"/"server") and that's what reddit is competing with, even if they don't realize that.

I think youre right. People are always trying to imagine the next reddit and its not going to be some clone like voat or whatever. Hackernews is actually a lot like reddit used to be but its not going to scale to reddits size without subreddits, or the like.

I dont know if anything will overtake Reddit for a very long time because of network effects. But discord is probably the best guess. Although I actually think people do want centralization. They want 1 login to 1 website that has everything.

Discord is tomorrow’s Reddit, except it’s even more siloed and it can’t be indexed.

Yes, true. I'm not a defender or proponent of discord by any measure, but I do see them as the most serious competitor for the same kind of communities that hang out on the more focused subreddits.

Half of my reddit usage is "X review Reddit". Discord would never fill in that niche.
