i find my self mentioning this in several of the reddit threads on here because i think it is an important if only historic fact that reddit was not just founded by aaron swartz (i hope you know who that was) _and_ huffman! let that sink in. that's a sad irony and refutes the notion huffman doesn't know what reddit is about.

also even if reddit will just continue as if nothing happened - which i believe it will - it will still have changed. it officially lost its spirit and the engagement of many people who made and make reddit interesting. left will be the people who don't care.
