Keep up the good work r/pics, this last one had me wondering if you were actually r/maliciouscompliance !
The record so far is that without a mod crossing lines the sub just stays restricted. Effectively shutdown.
You may look forward to it but I doubt it will happen.
I hope reddit enjoys the loss of traffic after they shut down this sub. I know I will.
Then more people who understand and acknowledge where the company stands right now, and where the platform stands in relation to that, need to “cross lines” in redditrequest. Either that, or more people need to accept that Reddit as a whole will probably be gone in a few months.
So reddit had basically broken the unwritten agreement it had with the community - the ones who gave it content that made it valuable as a company.
If they can’t survive without dishonouring that agreement then maybe it’s not such a bad thing if they don’t survive.
I respect your position on the situation. I would personally prefer it survive if at all possible.
I just wish everyone would respect the situation. You aren’t required to stay, or to leave. It’s obvious that the company isn’t going to change course because they need to get very profitable, very quickly. So why intentionally hurt other users, when you know that’s what you’re doing? Have we not outgrown this kind of valueless trolling? Do people think it will be a badge of honor that they were still trolling when Reddit died?
