While Greece is still relevant today, its ancient history is what people look to. So long as Reddit continues to exist in search results, it will serve a similar purpose.
The problem with your analogy is that swaths of Reddit’s knowledge is intentionally being overwritten by its posters. There’s no guarantee that indexed search results won’t link to a comment that just says “Fuck /u/spez”.
this is what I fear, this is probably a hot take but I hope reddit might as well make it possible to see the first iteration of a comment, genuinely useful for knowledge subreddit
