We are hitting the absolute peaks of fossil fuels in possibly as little as a decade from now also. The current arrangements are only possible with a constantly high energy throughput. There's considerable limits right now on how much growth can be achieved. And there are more things than ever competing for energy consumption too - including the rise of AI (which is causing energy consumption to soar again after ~2 decades of being flat in Western countries).

The thing is, it's still a huge increase.

The problem with Reddit turning into Instagram is that IG already exists.

At the rate they're going, their actual destination is Tumblr, a company that destroyed their brand trying to fit in with generic corporate BigTech.
