The saddest part about this is…it didn’t have to be this way. Reddit’s greed turned something beautiful (or at least with some nice pieces) into a hellscape….
In the end it wasn’t really that beautiful.
Reddit has the problem of being unprofitable and losing money. Users and moderators have the problem of wanting to access Reddit as they had before but no longer can. But Reddit responding with a heavy hand is what's caused the protests. Reddit isn't a charity but they also can't completely ignore their community.
Meh. They paid too many people too much to do too little
