I didn't really follow the recent "drama" (for lack of a better term), but I'm glad it came about because it created a lot of buzz on hackernews about reddit alternatives which got me to check out the Fediverse (kbin/lemmy), and a few other alternatives. I really like the look and feel of Discuit, but it's inevitable for it to become essentially another digg v4/reddit 2.0 clone because apart from a nice UI and the creator/owner not being a dick, it's still a centralised forum that will limit or censor discussion at the whims of the owner in the end. I don't want that.
