Made a account just to post this, all you’re doing is inconveniencing players of warframe, its obvious this is a failed experiment a majority of users aren’t going to sign up for yet another site (especially one most people dont know anything about) just for warframe, and restricting access to the trove of posts on the subreddit and a place for the community to share content is just damaging to the game.
Addressing this after this post has received multiple reports: Since this post has already cultivated discussion in the comments, it will be allowed to stay up.
We have now opened a megathread for any further discussion of the r/Warframe subreddit. Please add your comments there instead of creating new posts.
It’s a protest. It’s meant to be inconvenient. Be mad at the people causing the protest, not the protesters.
be realistic man reddit isn’t gonna change its mind because r/warframe is inaccessible, this protest is just hurting players
Protests haven’t changed their mind?
Reddit before:
- The protest won’t do anything
- We won’t remove mods
- Users will democratically decide to reopen
- Our revenue won’t be impacted
Reddit now:
- Banning some mentions of alternatives
- Removing mods participating in protest/reopening subs if any singular mod agrees
- Three huge subs have reopened, democratically voted (overwhelmingly) to continue protesting by becoming John Oliver fanclubs
- Incoherent rants about landed gentry and MUH MONEYS
If you want a warframe subreddit back, make your own. No one’s stopping you. Go ahead and do all the work to set the sub up and run it.
Otherwise, you’re welcome here. You’ve already made an account. Just contribute instead of complaining.
It’s kinda funny how fast Reddit has escalated their threats in under a week. Also, their claims of being “profit driven” while ignoring Devs that were willing to (or at least inquiring about) use the new paid API for 3 months.
It’s not about reddit changing their minds, it’s about getting communities to move to alternatives
which isn’t gonna happen in any reasonable amount of time, there are fractions of a fraction of users on this platform, and the outreach is horrendous if you didn’t see the post about this place before the subreddit went down chances are you don’t/ won’t even know it exists
Well, it’s a good thing it’s not just r/Warframe. IIRC 8k subreddits were a part of the protest at the start and over half are still participating.
users aren’t going to sign up for yet another site
You just did.
bro there is less than 1000 people on this site, thats a minuscule amount compared to the userbase of the reddit, people arent migrating
apparently there’s a little more than a 1000 people here https://the-federation.info/platform/73#
I’ve got a better idea: enable downvotes so we can give this post (and others like it) the treatment they deserve.
Seriously, “its [sic] obvious this is a failed experiment” after less than one week? And “a majority of users aren’t going to sign up for yet another site”… except for you? Give it a rest.
Just an FYI
Downvotes are disabled only if you made your account on dormi.zone (perhaps others). Mine is on lemmy.world, so…
The issue with that is people on dormi.zone still see only the upvotes, they don’t see the downvotes. So to them the OP is +4 but to us on lemmy.world it’s -11.
It would be nice if people asking for the sub to be reopened would tell us what information they actually wanted. Omitting that information doesn’t help anyone. In the posts about potentially migrating information from the original sub to here, there was a comment that the Mods were going to go through some of the posts on Reddit and make that information available here while the sub is down.
Instead of just asking whatever they were interested about, they’ve just been complaining about the protest and having to to use Lemmy. They could have had their answer by now and left the site by now. Someone else may have needed the same information, found it and moved on, or stayed and contributed to some other question. The Mods would know what information people are most interested in and put their time towards working on that.
undefined>Seriously, “its [sic] obvious this is a failed experiment” after less than one week?
After the Reddit Admins have said that they will forcefully remove all the moderators of subs that stay dark*
I support the black outs, but when the realistic options are to open up in restricted form, or to have the entire mod team wiped off the page and replaced with random Reddit goons, I would much prefer the former.
