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.

For me, the loss of AskHistorians was/is/will be the worst. There's so just much important knowledge there, they've changed how I see the world (and I assume that's true for others as well). I really hope they figure out a way to save some of that, but it won't be surprising if it just fades away... Just heart breaking.

I hope we can rebuild some things here, but AskHistorians definitely felt special.
