Will this undermine most of what makes IAmA special? Probably. But Reddit leadership has all the funds they need to hire people to perform those extra tasks we formerly undertook as volunteer moderators, and we’d be happy to collaborate with them if they choose to do so.
Woah. As someone who joined Reddit when it became mainstream, I didn’t know it was like that. I thought it just boiled down to “NO EMOJIS ALLOWED” or don’t ask questions or answer a rhetorical question because you’re going to risk getting downvoted
No the rules are actually quite good:

Notice also the point of linking to canonical persistent URL, today it’s absolutely riddled with amp links, that should be illegal IMO, because they infringe copyright, and remove traffic from content creators, and Google takes that traffic instead. I have no clue how that shit is legal.
Oh shit, it is. I don’t think I’ve ever read that, and most people probably haven’t too, if I looked at the comment section on any post on r/all I would see the reddiquette broken many times (I am personally guilty with non-transparent editing). Most of the behaviour I found annoying on Reddit were breaking the Reddiquette rules lol.
It’s probably pretty hard to imagine the actual difference in quality of debate when you haven’t seen it.
But I’m guessing it’s easy to imagine that there would be a difference.
