  It was definitely lisp before it was python - they used to talk about a rewrite - one of the earliest reddits were the lisp reddits - my question is if it was Arc by Paul Graham or a seperate program in Common Lisp

    Reddit was Common Lisp, not Arc (or Racket at all): https://web.archive.org/web/20060114065748/http://reddit.com/blog/2005/12/on-lisp.html https://web.archive.org/web/20060114065748/http://reddit.com... Arc was released a few years after Reddit announced their Python rewrite anyways

  Before the Python rewrite it was written on Common Lisp: https://github.com/reddit-archive/reddit1.0 https://github.com/reddit-archive/reddit1.0
