It was, Reddit was opensource, but they change that

What the hell are those comments…
I didn’t know it was open source until 2018. According to the article, they needed to go close-sourced due to the video player (lol)
… But you can find the original source code at: https://github.com/reddit-archive/reddit1.0
I really wonder if this is the code for https://old.reddit.com
and the video player is garbage.
Man I’m tempted to host an old Reddit clone that displays Fediverse content. You should even be able to use RES with it!
While reddit had an open api it was never open source reddit was always a company that was focused on making money
