The new alternative is becoming obsolete

I sure hope so, but I don't see much changing. I guess we'll see by looking at where Reddit is at business-wise by next year. People were saying it was doomed last summer after the 3rd party app fiasco, and their daily traffic has only gone up since then. I've long since lost all faith in the masses making the best choices for themselves.

their daily traffic has only gone up since then

well the number of bots has certainly surged....

Although the quality has noticeably decreased. The number of bots has shot up a ridiculous amount.
