This is so sad, I don't understand how any moderator would still feel ok to stay on reddit... Thank you for sharing

What the.... ?!!!!!
Is spez offering rewards to reddit employees for the most subs they undark now or something????
If any employees were involved they were just told to send the form letter to any sub still private. It was probably automated, I haven't paid attention to any time stamps. Intimidation is all it is.
I can't stop laughing at someone going after r/diynailpolish.
Millions affected! Open the damn door or we'll blow out your windows!
Wow I figured if a sub had less than 30 people they would not bother. I have a sub that only has 2 subscribers which I made restricted and edited the lounge post. All of the posts besides the lounge post are now set to nsfw as well.
The message I have in the lounge post.
"Due to reddits Unreasonable Api changes which will effect moderators and screw over blind people we have moved to. https://kbin.social/m/magazinename"
They're totally grasping at straws.
I got one of these today! Yeah good luck with that, Reddit.
I opened and put links to the discord and to here that I started.
You are a threat to Steve's ego, he can't have that.
Just checked and I have the same. Will be nuking all of my subs in a couple of hours.
The success of reddit is balancing on whether you open up that incredibly defiant group of nail artists! 🙃
Well, I'm glad you've found your way here. There are a couple of groups that might be of interest to you ...
@Laqueristas
@lemmylaqueristas
Welcome! 🤗
Both links gave me a 404 error. I also started a group here.
https://kbin.social/m/Nails
Yeh, it's my first time linking on here so I'm still learning how to do it. And I think it's different too, for Lemmy, kbin, and mastodon. Often I just copy the name or link and paste it to search in kbin to find the location.
I'm also finding the links I posted above send me to 404 if I click directly, but will open correctly if I right click/open in new tab. But here are two links that might work for kbin, however I dunno if they would work for Lemmy users lol.
https://kbin.social/m/Laqueristas
https://kbin.social/m/lemmylaqueristas@lemmy.world
edit: oh, and thanks! I've subbed to "Nails"
They may as well just remove the "Private" feature from Reddit since it's against the CoC to use it at this point.
Sad. Have you thought of making it on Kbin or Lemmy?
Already did. In fact I made a few and am working on getting the mod teams on Reddit to make the jump. I will then hand over the Kbin that is for them. I figured it would be easier if I have a place for them to land ready to go.
I have a sub of like 4 subscribers/posts that I closed shortly after opening it because I realized that I had no time to mod. I might want to check in on that sub…
This was actually a question I have, if I create a subreddit and start to mod it, does Reddit now own my subreddit? Yes, it does
Reddit owns the subreddit, you own your content, other users own their content. Reddit has a license to use your content. And of course, Reddit can do whatever they like with any subreddit.
you own your content, other users own their content
I think this may be confusing for laymen. From a copyright standpoint you are off course correct, you are the author and therefore the "owner" of the words you just wrote on Reddit.
But from a practical point of view the copy you send Reddit once you press submit takes a life of its own, governed by a very broad-reaching license, which for all intents and purposes means you don't control that copy anymore.
100% correct, and I agree... people do not grasp the nuance there in most cases. Awaiting the day Reddit tries to claim they own the content though.
@Pookie1804 Small sub or large, I kind I agree with Reddit on this. The mods that close down their subs in protest are being selfish. I have no issues if mods just leave, but closing the sub down or altering its mission drastically is an insult to all the people that are still using the Reddit site. Just because I might not like something Reddit has doesn't mean I should prevent other people from enjoying it. They should be allowed to make the dicission to leave reddit on their own and in their own time frame.
why the fuck are you on kbin then
While I understand why there is lots of negative energy about Reddit right now, there’s no need to be hostile to people who still want to use it—it is still a massive repository of information and serves a ton of different communities, after all.
People should be on Reddit if they want to be on Reddit, and be here if they want to be here, and that’s not an insult to anyone.
I don’t think Reddit is going to change course here (or, in the future)… at some point protesters are going to have to give up, get out, or become increasingly perceived as trolls.
I can't be on several platforms? Out of curiosity I joined other potential reddit alternatives in the past even though I had no plans on leaving Reddit. Same situation here.
it's just that your argument sounds awfully similar to the automated message the admins have been sending out to all of the mods that were protesting.
Those other users are free to make their own subs?
