I’ve been around enough decades to know that “final farewell” shows tend to be every once in a while rather than one-time affairs.

Intercom turns on

“Great people of the first Mars settlement, your glorious leader comes to you from Earth with an important message about this month’s oxygen supply.”

So to combat system manipulation… he’s giving more power to users that can better manipulate the system.

People think this genius is going to give us colonies on Mars when all he’s successfully done is take credit for other people’s work, buy a platform for hate with investor’s money, and give Twitter investors a deeply painful colonoscopy.

Honestly, I haven’t seen as big of a push for redditors to move elsewhere.

It feels like Plan A was to protest the changes and when that plan didn’t work, there was no Plan B in sight. I saw someone suggesting that perhaps, at this point, it would be best to consider moving to another platform but the reality is that outside ModCoord I didn’t really see a coordinated effort to do that.

While everyone is likely to suffer in the long-run in terms of the quality of content, outside of losing access to some very cool apps the biggest victims of the whole ordeal have been the mods actually standing up to Reddit’s tyrannical behavior.

Reddit is beyond redemption, but for many people reddit is home and the plan now seems to be to comply with the orders and try to keep what semblance of normalcy and power each mod has rather than realizing that the point at which their votes, voices and free labor matter is over.
