I love SN because of its similarities to Reddit. Good content rises to the top.
The blackout that has been underway the last 2 days, has really highlighted the need for an alternative and surely that alternative is right here? Should SN not be allowing custom ~subjects to be made about anything and let the platform grow where users want it to grow?
I know there have been discussions around ~tech but curious why SN are limiting it.
Example of a subreddit discussion on the blackout, where they feel there is no alternative:

Still raining? 😄

yeah damn it.... the whole month of May was dry, but I was busy with other things.
Now the whole month of June every fucking day is raining and I can't go.
I really need to finish that citadel.

I don't see SN as "the alternative" to Reddit. I think Tildes fits the most to what some Redditors look for in an alternative without the images posts and NSFW, even RiF developer is working on a Tildes client.
I find SN more akin to an HN alternative, HN has been the same site since its inception?, also can't take HN seriously with its anti-Bitcoin stance.

reddit is dead I think, they will try to push their changes and mods will keep subs in the dark.
No content, no money, no site. The end of reddit.

I've never posted on Reddit. How does that work? Can't Reddit just magically open any subs marked private?

If they wanted to piss people off more than they already have.

That's a fair point!

We are discussing how user generated will work more and more. It’s usually a sign we’ll work on it soon.

The have different constraints so will be different. The sauce, the motivation and intent, is the same though.
