That applies to newcomers too. For example, if you want to lock a thread, simply comment “!lock”.
For some reason, this whole chaos is more true to the Reddit I know than everything has been for the last years.
Blackout
Blocking a community for a protest is irresponsible and undemocratic.
NSFWification
Using a feature that is explicitly baked into the platform is irresponsible and will harm
people who chose to click/tap on NSFW content clearly marked as such, and probably voted for to appear in the subredditchildren.Absolute democracy
You, uh, you have to… er, we uhm, uhhhh
I just locked a complete comment section. Cool.
I hereby ordain you all as popes as well btw
But what if I want to be a mome?
Good for them. I hate to see Reddit fail like this but it’s the bed they chose to make.
this is really testing my resolve not to go back to that site.
Wow.
What a nightmare this whole thing is turning out to be. I mean, imagine being the CEO right now. You want to seem strong, you don’t want to back down, but every day the chaos seems to get crazier.
Imagine the pressure right now.
And the funny thing is, he deserves every bit of the shitstorm he brewed. He’s traded his shovel for an industrial sized tunnel boring machine to dig Reddit’s grave, as well as his own.
wipes tear That’s beautiful.
!lock
If everyone is landed gentry, than no one is!
