Reddit is my Web Components reference point
Earlier this year I wrote about how, despite Web Components having so many public advocates, there were few success stories of the technology in the wild. And even some incidents of companies moving away from Web Components to React, like GitHub has been doing.
Well: Reddit is the success story I can point to now. When I wrote the blog post in January, they were feature-flagging their Web Components frontend only for some users or sessions. But now it's the default. As a casual Reddit user, I think the WC version of Reddit has been an improvement in my experience: the site loads fast, has good accessibility properties, and seems stable to me. I'd love to hear from folks who work at Reddit how the transition has gone, from an engineering culture & DX perspective!
