they settled on that in 2014 so seems unlikely

In these specific instances I agree with you. The few I looked at were just single or no post communities. I think the mods just want to give these a chance in case anyone actually does want to take them over and breathe some life into them.
In general though, I think it's healthy for the fediverse to have options, even with similar topics. I'm sure you might recall situations on Reddit where people didn't like how a sub was moderated, so some people would set up r/TRUEwhatever.
Epicurious put out a fun video last week having a few chefs compare boxed mac and cheese products. You might find it interesting https://youtu.be/uambW2W6zmQ
Garbage bags. I don't particularly care WHICH brand, but I won't do generic. The consequences if the bag rips open are horrifying.
This isn't even new. Why are we posting things from over two years ago and treating it like some sort of revelation?

I totally agree. I wasn't decided on quitting Reddit just because of the 3rd party apps fiasco, but the overall quality of the content took a nosedive which only further reinforced my decision to uninstall Relay once the subs finally came.
At a cost of free it was still like of worth checking out but not if I have to pay.

Willing to bet the comments in that thread are positive because survivorship bias, at least in part. Folks like me who deleted the app probably wouldn't have commented, after all. I'm also sure I wasn't the only one to see the subscription prompt come up and just delete the app.
knew it was coming and decided ahead of time that when I was forced to pay, I'd just delete the app.
Ars and Reddit are under the same parent company, conde nast or however that's all structured. I also have noticed ars seems to write very frequently about Reddit, even if it is usually in a critical light.
I get mixed feelings about articles like this one.
Do you realize how difficult it is to move from one country to another? It's expensive as hell, and if you're a US citizen you still owe taxes on money you make while living abroad.
Additionally, the cost to renounce US citizenship is the highest in the world by a large margin. $2350 + exit taxes, as of this writing. https://common.usembassy.gov/en/renounce-citizenship/
Next highest is Jamaica at $1040 as of this writing. https://congenjamaica-ny.org/renunciation-of-jamaican-citizenship/
The USA is an inescapable hellhole for the poor, so think for a few seconds before you make another shit comment like this.

Not necessarily to justify Gizmodo in this instance, but Slack does paywall their SSO feature behind their Business+ Plan, which seems to currently run $12.50/mo/user, which is about a 70% increase from their next pricing tier. See: https://slack.com/pricing
Given the price difference I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't want to pay for that.
Edit: someone later in the thread linked this page which helps explain why this is generally a bad practice https://sso.tax/
