That’s a recent quote from Reddit’s VP of community, Laura Nestler. Here’s more of it: This week, Reddit has been telling protesting moderators that if they keep their communities private, the company will take action against them. Any actions could happen as soon as this afternoon.

All my time there, 13 actually. On the latter part of my stay. I found that I really get irritated, and sometimes angry because I see puns and one sentence reply that's so overused but still get thousands of upvotes. And then the well thought of replying getting less than a hundred.

It's all bots commenting and upvoting each other by the end.
