Many don’t really remember it but about 3-4 years ago a group of devs made a Reddit clone/alternative called Ruqqus and it briefly gained a surge of active users as Reddit was going through ban waves.

Guess what the largest guild (subreddit) was on there? Well it was +WatchRedditDie, there were some other issues such as the head dev being too much of a janny (since they ran Ruqqus and coded it) and a bunch of political shitposters that turned it into a cesspit. It died maybe 1.5 years after launch?
