so, which Big Tech company do you think is going to shit the bed next and popularize its Fediverse/FOSS equivalent in the process?

I'm personally crossing my fingers for Discord.

I honestly don't think the fediverse will become nearly as popular as many seem to.think. It's still complicated to use/understand for many non-tech enthusiasts, and in the case of Reddit, while people are angry, I doubt most of their users are going anywhere any time soon. Some will leave, but it's not going to be a small number.
We may be few, but I’m proud to count myself among those who quit Reddit because of this. (Not that I wasn’t looking for a good reason for a long time).
As long as there's enough of us to maintain a community here, then we're golden 🙂. And I'm definitely under the impression that we're getting there.
Imo Reddit is dying, and while I'm sure some people will get confused by the way it works at first, i think people will stick around
