I wonder if they saw a bunch of traffic trying to access advice animals and decided it was a good testing grounds for removing mods.

It’s depressing that I’m not surprised one bit. At this point, I don’t even think it’s worth sticking around until 3PA shut down on the 30th.

I was looking at the reddit protest stream when it happened. Since it only says it reopened, i was a bit sad that such a huge sub would withdraw their desicion.

This makes more sense, and its awful.

Greedy people fuckin' nice things up. Nothing new under the sun.

Reddit? Are they new? Never heard of it 🤣 Probably won't get very big

They did the same thing to admins of other major subreddits even before the blackout. They also removed initial posts regarding it on major subreddits. Thats why I chose to leave.

I'm quite happy here now. Given up on reddit. The day Apollo's API key is deleted is the day I edit all of my comments and give up on the platform completely. It's strange I how feel no regret over saying that. It's just the way it's going to be.

It'll just lead to a general decline in sub quality.

This is downright terrifying. A major escalation of the blackout and deleting your content - with the help of european law - is a nice response to that, if they do not step back. This is perhaps the most extreme measure to be taken, short of destroying the data center itself. An emptied reddit history is a massive loss of knowledge and perhaps questionably damaging for the outside world.

bootlickers, inc.

So much for all the "oh, it's not hurting our revenue" dismissals.

Apparently, a heck of a lost of drama involving this.
