In a word, "Good."
This is exactly the point, as we all know. Answers to every random question out there should NOT be a centralized single point of failure that can be captured and monetized. It should be distributed, archived, and made freely available like libraries.
Federated, I'd you will. ๐
I had a friend suggest that Google just buy Reddit. With their deep pockets they could just run it at a loss. And it can help the search and AI development. Not the worst idea. Can't see them running it any worse than the current administration.
Why would you buy a company to run it at a loss plus however many millions you paid for it?
Google has mastered aggregating data over decades, they don't need to own a website to get the data they want, Reddit much like any other website uses Google Analytics anyway.
Haha, just imagine the reactions of r/degoogle if that would happen.
Most of that sub is probably already in the processs of deredditing anyways.
