Didnt know the apollo dev is from halifax.... Makes me even more angry that reddit CEO tried to make him look like a liar
everyone on the internet is secretly Canadian .
Too bad there was no mention of decentralised alternates like Lemmy or kbin.
We should be the change
And yet I read something about them taking over one of the popular subs (adviceanimals or something) and removing all the mods and making it public again...
What happened was the top mod, who had been inactive for a while, came online and overrode the other mod's decision to stay open. This caused a moderator dispute, which caused the admins to step in, and they decided to remove the top mod and reopen the sub.

(And if Reddit was maliciously forcing subs open, why would they choose r/AdviceAnimals?)
If the CEO got caught editing comments and posts, how do I know he didn't just pretend to be a defunct mod lol
Probably because it's one of their front page subs? My guess at least. Maybe the CEOs favorite π€£
Not a bad article. A bit light on details and the effects and consequences of Reddit's changes. However, many articles I've seen from other mainstream news organizations were slanted towards the corporate bias and made it sound like the concerns were no big deal.
CBC often does this with Business reporting. In their story about the InstantPot bankruptcy they neglected to mention that the reason the company was $500 million in debt is because they were acquired by a private equity firm who then took out a $500 million loan in the company's name and used it to pay themselves a huge dividend, earning about $150 million in instant profit.
