Hard to see this as anything but a good thing, Reddit is such a cesspool.

There's a lot of good troubleshooting and tech info on there, though. I've run into multiple tech issues over the years that aren't documented in bug reports, change logs, etc., but some random person on Reddit will have a post where they investigated the cause and found a solution.

For software, if it already has the cloned source then it can just look at how the thing works directly and answer you completely. I should think they'd already be cloning all FOSS repos and that it'll eventually just do that.

And quite often a thread isn't just a problem and a solution but the set of steps to get to the destination. Even if it's not the exact same issue the process is useful.

It's still one of the rare places where public discussion is happening. There is simply no alternative.

Is this entire site not an alternative to a sub-reddit?

Discussion is much more focused here and not that much actually occurs. E.g. try following https://news.ycombinator.com/newcomments and most of the time it's not difficult to read through every single comment being made. If what you're looking for is well discussed on HN regularly though then it's great.

The public discussion on Reddit is very heavily censored and probably already dominated by bots at this point.

This is most likely a good thing for both platforms

It’s also just unreliable; people complain about Wikipedia being user edited but Reddit is so often just nonsense. It’s what the collective wants to be real, not what’s actually real

A very small, specific and highly correlated slice of the collective, though.
