The mods keep saying they’re staying to protect their users, but they should be off boarding to another site if they really care. They have already lost the power to take care of their community, they’re already bending to reddit.
If you keep your group on reddit you just want mod powers on a popular site, you aren’t protecting anyone. I just can’t accept “i care enough to stay and keep my power to obey reddit admins” is so weaksauce.
Howdy! To help wrangle this topic and keep the hive clean, we’ll be removing this thread. We encourage you to direct new discussion to this megathread.
Watching reddit implode was funny for a while. Now, it’s just the same thing over and over - doubling down, then tripling down, then quadrupling down on shitty management decisions.
Maybe they’ll collapse soon. Maybe they’ll limp on for a few years. Whatever. I feel sorry for anyone who’s still majorly invested, but it’s not something I can fix. Reddit may even (unintentionally) be doing those stubborn mods a favor by forcing them out. Maybe this will be the kick in the butt they need to get them to move on.

Incredibly disappointing, but I’ll wait to hear their explanations and new plans of action.
I just don’t care anymore.
