This is the kind of action that sways the rational folks who were indifferent. Those folks make for decent discussion, and I preemptively welcome them.
The admins pay their rent doing what the execs tell them to do. Much as I would like for a system where the moderators also got compensated for their work, not being so lends them independence from the platform, and allows them to be more responsive to their communities.
I get why some of the admins are doing it, but “just following orders” has never been a good look.
Sorry for using your comment as a springboard to soapbox. >_>
thanks for using Leebra!

Reddit admins aren't even pretending to try to explain their decisions. The gloves have come off and they don't care about justifying their actions to the mod communities they're wiping. It's a matter of time until every subreddit has either fallen in line or been 'reset' unfortunately.
