They don’t exclusively do retro stuff, but Digital Foundry’s DFRetro series is brilliant.


The main thing I got from reading Huffman’s comments about all of this is that, despite helping create Reddit, he doesn’t actually know what Reddit is.

Reddit links to other websites, and hosts user-made posts/comments. That’s it. And that’s exactly why pissing off the mods who’ve spent years preventing Reddit from becoming a cesspool (see 4/8chan for what an unmoderated Reddit would look like) is a really bad idea.

Despite what Huffman seems to think - Reddit doesn’t actually make any content of its own. But he seems to think that Reddit owns all of the content on the site. Well, it sure as shit doesn’t own the other websites which are constantly linked to, which only leaves the user-created content, which the users are proving that Reddit doesn’t own either.
