As with many other subreddits, /r/LegalAdviceUK (which had been dark since the start of the blackout) has been sent a thinly-veiled threat by Reddit.

So they've reopened in order to start moving the entire community of 810,000 subscribers to somewhere else.

As you can imagine there are a number of legal professionals who moderate that sub, and they really don't take kindly to being threatened. They sign off their reopening message with "Fuck /u/Spez and long live John Oliver." but for the real fun you might want to look up a very famous British legal case they reference, Arkell v Pressdram 1971.

Discord has threaded discussions, but its truly a case of "jack of all trades". It's simply not built to manage they kind of content, and does nothing but realtime comms with any utility.

Guilded is better, but still relatively unpolished.

The only real apples:apples option for an exodus from snooville is a vbulletin site or federated boards like kbin.
