“I didn’t notice a single new or low-post-count forum”

The author lists many reasons why reddit should not be at the top of search results. I listed even more reasons here: Reddit is dangerous. The admins are out of control. Humanity needs a viable alternative.
I find their repeated “I’m not outing anyone”, “I’m not here to out anyone” irritating, especially for evading sourcing examples. I guess it’s a very evasive, non-confrontational approach. But to me, that’s not necessarily a good thing. Either way sourcing isn’t likely to resolve the overall systematic (Reddit- and Google-sided) issue anyway.
