Some of Reddit’s most popular communities have posted open letters to the company with a series of requests regarding many key issues at the heart of the recent protests on the platform. They want a response by June 29th.
I don’t think that the people who provide the content and the people who moderate the content are wrong in thinking that they should be accorded some respect by a site that would be worthless without that content.
They’re not wrong at all, but Reddit aren’t going to change their mind and grant them their due respect. Like with Digg before it, the userbase will slowly migrate away if this keeps up.
Are you by any chance active on the WA discord?
I am indeed! And a lot of other places. Good to see you around the net.
This might be the first time I’ve seen someone I know from one place on the net and recognize them on another part of the net. Haha, small net!
It’s fun, right? That’s actually part of why I use the same name everywhere - I’ve had friends from a decade ago find me on Twitter and go “hey, did you play Runescape…?”
Makes the world feel a little less lonely when you find the faces and names you know!
Reddit has told them all to fuck off in a variety of ways for months.
At some point you gotta take the hint instead of trying to make peace with the abuser.
Yeah, I don’t think they’re saying that users aren’t important to Reddit; what they seem to wanna say is that Reddit doesn’t care whether or not users are important to them.
The only thing you can do at this point is quit, because Reddit will only budge when it’s too late for them.
