    This but I don’t think they are on the side of the people. For both of them it could be personal or part of some secret deal, though if it’s the latter at all, it’s probably both. Both got a lot of disrespect through those platforms, and the freedom of movement of information on both platforms were making things more difficult for entities that were previously dominating the information game.

    I just wonder what their next play is if I’m right. I suspect Reddit will walk back their changes to try to kill off these decentralized mass social media sites to bring the discussion back to the centralized ones where they can at least influence the discussions with admin access to the platform.
