Today, Reddit forcibly removed me (and everyone else) as mods of /r/iOSProgramming, a subreddit of about 130k users. I was keeping the sub private / NSFW | Tanner B 🦕🧁 (@objc@mastodon.social) (mastodon.social)

Reddit took a calculated risk and they probably allowed for a wide margin of error.

IMO Reddit's risk is paying off. Lemmy isn't a replacement and tons of people are still using it daily.

I wouldn't even call it "calculated"... they calculated nothing... they can always rely on the puppies going back and drooling all over reddit.
