It’s going to be a lot harder to pull off massive protests.

It’s not like they couldn’t put a stop to blackouts before, as seen with the third-party app fiasco, but Reddit has now made that tactic entirely impossible. Mods will now need to get permission from Reddit admins before they can make a sub private. Makes me wonder if they’re about to do something controversial again soon.

    Reddit makes an anti-user change. In other news, grass is green.

    I haven’t been on the site in over a year and nothing since then has convinced me to go back. Maybe I’m lucky that I’m not in any Reddit-only communities, but it could also just be that I treat those communities as though they don’t exist and never had a reason to join one as a result.
