I just have to laugh.
Fuck reddit! I’m here now!
Serious question. Can’t the mods delete the subs entirely? Wouldn’t that be the biggest blow? To have to start all of these subs over from scratch?
They can, but Reddit can just as easily restore it, with a blank mod list. But based on their actions I wouldn’t be surprised if they outright ban any mods that try this.
Would all of the people that subscribed to the mod still be there or would it be a blank slate?
I think this should be a last ditch, unannounced effort. Just do it and bounce.
Reddit decides to “crack down” on the protests instead of realizing that it’s all because they’re being jerks.
The beatings will continue until morale improves.
I only go to Reddit now because of one or two forums that don’t exist on here yet, But the more I see stories like this, the more I’m inclined to just say screw it and nuke my account.
Honestly, at this point, my plan is to nuke my account. The only communities on their that I really check that aren’t on here have devolved into mindless rage-bait. Probably a so-long and good riddance situation.
No one regrets getting banned from digg.
Gotta love the ones that are actually NSFW that they want changed to not. Naked selfies is pretty much the tip of the iceberg with Cyberpunk, with a lot of gore and violence and sex underneath. And there’s some truly fucked up shit that I don’t even want to describe that’s there too, as a side quest continuation of main story events.
The reddit app is only marked PG and not 18+ in the Google Play store - maybe someone should let them know about the content that’s not behind nsfw filters any more?
Not sure if it was just changed, but I see it has a Mature 17+ rating.
Same, I wonder if it’s changed because of all the drama? The rating dropped from like 4.3 to 3.2 stars in the last month, I’d guess people were also reporting it for having mature content.
“We are now stuck in a difficult position as we do not want the community to die”
Feels to me like they dug their own grave and now complain that the user’s are problem.
What are they expecting after they remove moderators and remove the nsfw status? That the users keep posting? They aren’t dumb and I could imagine that some or most people will probably stop posting there.
There is a whole set of users who apparently think the mods are in the wrong and that Reddit is right. Whether these are real users, and not armies of bots using ChatGPT to generate content, is up for debate. (But they’re definitely bots lol)
The admins were also deleting comments. I had at least a few disappear without explanation or notice. Could be many more, I have no way of even knowing.
