问HN：Reddit是否会走上Stack Overflow的老路？
Stack Overflow曾经是2010年代初期技术问题和解释的避风港。然而，某个时候，管理团队的态度发生了变化，开始任命一些成员，他们开始以薄弱的理由拒绝和删除评论。比如，问一个8年前已经被问过的问题就会导致你的问题被删除，完全忽视了在这8年间技术可能发生的变化。这个网站不仅整体上充满毒性，而且使用起来也很困难。在2010年代末，搜索你的问题加上“stack overflow”成了主要的使用方式。大型语言模型（LLM）成为了Stack Overflow的最后一根稻草，使用数据也反映了这一点。为什么要费心搜索并仔细措辞你的问题，结果却在8小时后得到一个尖酸刻薄的回答，而Claude可以在5秒钟内给你一个大致相同准确度的答案呢？
那么，Reddit是否也会走上Stack Overflow的老路？各个子版块的管理者们已经毒性十足很久了。政治相关的子版块培养了群体思维，冷门话题则排斥那些信息不足的成员等等。Reddit的管理员，网站雇佣的那些人，通常也对用户持反对态度。无缘无故地禁止成员，缺乏或根本没有对禁令的解释，基本上就是用铁拳和橡皮脑袋进行管理。
Reddit填补了与Stack Overflow不同的市场空缺，更加注重娱乐性。但我觉得它采用的同样错误的管理模式将在大约5年内导致同样的衰亡。
你怎么看？

Stack Overflow was once a haven for tech questions & explanations in the early 10's. At some point, the mod team soured and started deputizing members that started shunning and deleting comments for thinly justified reasoning. Things like asking a question that was asked 8 years ago would get your question deleted, ignoring the fact that tech reasonably could have changed in those 8 years. The site was not only generally toxic, it was difficult to actually use. Searching on google your question "stack overflow" was the main use case in the late 10's. LLM's have been the final nail in the coffin for SO, and the usage charts reflect this. Why bother carefully searching and phrasing your question to get a sassy answer 8 hours later, when Claude will give you an answer in 5 seconds with approximately the same accuracy of an internet stranger?<p>So - is Reddit headed the same way as SO? The mods of individual subreddits have been toxic for ages. Political subs curate hive minds, niche topics exclude members that are less informed, etc. Reddit admins, the ones that are emplyoed by the site, are also generally anti-user. Banning members without cause, poor or no explanations of what the ban is for and generally just policing with an iron fist & a rubber brain.<p>Reddit fills a different niche from SO, being more entertainment focused. But I feel it's the same mistaken model of moderation that will lead to the same demise in ~5 years.<p>Thoughts?
