Am I doing the site and users a disservice by having my own private subreddits?
Post Body

I joined this site about a decade ago and a recurring thought from then to now has been wondering when, one day, all the usernames will be taken up.

Well - now that the gates have opened for creating subreddits I canโ€™t help but to feel like I have an obligation to not sit on a unique /{sub_name} because it will impact a some other user down the line.

I already have a sub that is the same as my username; but I also have 1 others subreddit with more general alphanumeric name that looks like this:/326fh308 that is used to store more specific things: bot testing, relevant links, wikipedia articles, code snippets, reminders, blah, blah, blah.

Iโ€™m ultimately curious to hear some thoughts on this or if Iโ€™m just being weird.
