Brilliant! One commenter also gets it:

Should be higher in the list. One of the only REAL alternatives to Reddit. Others are just other social networks or forums. It is open-source and has very similar features.

Those comments do make me feel pretty great :) . That. @[email protected] and I could build something out in the open that tech wise at least, rivals a company with hundreds of devs and millions of dollars at their disposal, is a great achievement.

Do not forget the political backing of many mainstream subreddits, that solely exist to push the US foreign policy agenda and also as police/military honeypots. And some also as racist containment zones.
