Hey guys, this one's a doozy! I thought this story was worthy of being told. I already feel better having written it all out.
But if long-winded diatribes aren't your cup of tea, I won't be offended if you skip this one. ngl though, it's got some juicy bits. I'd love to know how all of this jives with the experiences and observations of many of you out there.
Thank you very much for taking the time to write up such a detailed reflection.
I haven't given up hope on reddit, but experiences like yours remind us how problematic that platform can be.
It seems to me to be no coincidence that the Donald sub was banned and so many of their regulars migrated to r/conspiracy
At that point, what could you or any of the other mods do?
It was a shit tsunami, Randy, and that sub was stranded on shit beach.
I'm glad this alternative exists, thanks to those of you who created / run it.
