I don't think we'll see a reddit replacement as they're all subject to the same dilemma of increased userbase equals increased attention from shills. I suspect that those with valuable knowledge will form smaller communities in the vein of forums of old and the rest will be left with meme boards. Torrent communities seem a good example of this in practice.
