  Don’t know if you’re joking but this is not supposed to be a clone of reddit.

    Then why does it have almost identical features/layout/intentions? It’s for people to switch to.

      No it’s not a replacement fabricated for that purpose. It looks similar because the structure is a sensible one that makes sense for its design. It has no relationship to Reddit other than the fact that it’s a good alternative.

        It fits what was said then. It is, as you said, an alternative.

  It is common amongst cloned software projects to completely rename a lot of the original software’s terminology.

    What exactly do you find bizarre about it? Like how is it not identical to reddit with the exception of federation?

      psst. It’s the federation.

        A clone with the addition of federation.
