It, of course, remains a toxic hellhole to this day. No one will give a shit after a single newsday, the only thing that will affect reddit is a mass exodus which will hurt their 2 billion evaluation.
They literally do not care if the subs go to shit, their only priority is for participation and growth. Why do you think they drag their feet as long as they can on any troublesome subs? While it looks bad for a bunch of subs to go private, I'm not sure where the capitalism calculus lands them in terms of what they believe is the best course of action in response.
Private subs still generate numbers they can pitch to investors, but I also don't think the PR of not doing anything over covid misinformation is frankly enough to scare off investors either - there's plenty of clearly right wing outlets on the internet that don't seem to struggle too much to acquire funding.
Being ostensibly against it but also "pro free speech" or whatever seems to be an okay argument for most people in the United States. From my experience, it's the opposite. This is just untrue. People keep repeating that, but it's either never happened or there just happens to be absolutely 0 evidence of such. What I'm guessing happened is that during the blackout, pics reopened or something and then people just assumed that the mod team couldn't've possibly made the decision to open up again.
No, I can't prove anything. The sub blacked out, it went back up surprisingly quickly, well before the official announcement from reddit. Those are the facts from my perspective. Whether it be due to admins opening it up themselves as they can override mods , the mods changing face quickly, or the admins quickly compromising with those mods first to get the "important subs" open.
Either way, it is an action admins can do. We are being encouraged to stay dark as long as possible. So, it is vague and up to the moderators of each sub. The head mod of the subreddit I'm in is not replying to modmail. He might find himself down one mod if he ever decides to grace us with his presence again. He's not the most present of moderators at the best of times. So it was a bit of rude him to make a fly-by appearance just to shut down the subreddit without telling anyone, and then piss off without answering any questions.
Or I could do both! This whole situation is ridiculous. Nothing is going to be achieved by this, except to encourage members of our subreddit to go to other similar subreddits which are still open. Decision made. As I said in my goodbye message: if there's no activity in the subreddit to moderate, then he doesn't need moderators, and I don't need to be a part of a team where the head mod doesn't even tell the other mods what he's doing.
Not only did he not bother telling his fellow moderators what he was going to do, he's now inconveniencing thousands of members of a very active subreddit, just to achieve absolutely nothing.
I hope he's happy with the outcome of his actions. I'm not sure 'nothing' is an accurate description of the outcome of the blackout? Not to say he was right not to have spoken with you — just that I wouldn't at all say this protest was useless. Still, what's done is done.
My reasons for leaving have more to do with his lack of communication than the protest itself, so I don't regret my choice. If your narrative is accurate, then I agree with your decisions. Hopefully, you can move on to greener pastures. You are spot on! Thank you. I mean for fuck's sake, I shouldn't have to carefully tip-toe around certain words.
It's part of Reddit's transition from a website to an app. We note that no action has been taken against arr-conspiracy or arr-LockdownSkepticism. Please bear with us for the moment. Why was this tagged as exemplary? No offense dubteedub I've already been getting harassing modmail messages and this helps :.
I'm not the person who actually did label it, though. I think you may have jumped the gun on this. Why would this make you angry? In response, said moderators band together and create a Reddit clone of their own, possibly using the source code of another alternative like Ruqqus. Reddit does nothing and all the protesting mods inevitably give up and go back to their normal ways. Your analysis is valid. Scenario 3 will happen. It has happened before. Remember when Reddit backed down and gave Ms Taylor her job back?

Autonomy's former chief financial officer has alleged the firm collapsed partly because two financial analysts agreed to badmouth it in the hope of making a profit from its demise.

The issues kicked off at around 8. Interview New Zealand's Rocket Lab is set to launch another Electron rocket - a precursor to the rocketeer's first attempt at catching a descending booster.
The launch, dubbed "Love at First Insight", is currently scheduled for no earlier than 16 November owing to an "out of family ground sensor reading" when the launch window opened yesterday morning and has the primary objective of popping a pair of Earth-observation satellites into orbit for Black Sky.
Also featuring on the launch is Rocket Lab's latest evolution of its recovery technology. Unlike SpaceX's crowd-pleasing propulsive antics, the first stage of the Rocket Lab Electron will descend by parachute and attempt a controlled splashdown into the ocean, making it the third ocean recovery if all goes well. The eventual plan is for a helicopter to snag the stage as it descends. This time, however, everything will be done except an attempt to catch the rocket.
