I heard their message boards were getting lots of death threat level nasty messages, the mods said it was too much to deal with case by case.
That RIF is fun had a revenue sharing agreement explains why they were able to keep Reddit in front the apps name when other 3rd party apps couldn’t. Corporate Reddit sounds like a nightmare to work with.
One of the mods posted here that they were forcibly removed by admin
Probably because he has back end control to make sure elections give him what he wants with the veneer of popular support.
It’s not like they don’t know it’s not paid, if it’s a fun hobby people choose to support the communities they love they’d spend the time anyway. But with every move to make Reddit more corporate it makes the sites reliance on volunteers more exploitative.
