In German we have a great proverb: "better a terrible end than unending terror" (rhymes in German, no good equivalent in English).

It's sad that things "ended" the way they did, but it's great that we're finally in an actual open ecosystem which can't be milked and changed the way Reddit did.

"better a terrible end than unending terror"

Huh. Those Germans. Always have a positive outlook on everything.

That's what we're known for!

There's a regional saying I like even more: "Et kütt wie et kütt, un et hätt noch immer jot jejange". Roughly: things come as they come, but so far everything turned out well :)
