    She did finally write a post on r/annoucements today. It'll be interesting to see how things pan out.

      I feel like it was to little too late.

      I think this comment on her post covered it fairly well.

        That comment does make a good point about shadowbanning. And I'm sure it's hard to get a hold of the admins when something like that happens and you want some answers. It would suck to be one of the paying customers on Reddit and get treated like that.

        I found this comment very interesting.

          That is scarily true. People tend to care about the content, not the site.

          @TheDylantula -

          I don't think that's scary, just the way it is for him. Maybe he would care more if had more option to be involved in the community (instead of the emotionally distant place that was/is Reddit).

          In the end this is a nice thing for them the community gets toxic like Reddit was. The toxicity both keeps you from becoming attached to the community as well as pushes people away. If people go, there is less content (especially if it was someone like /u/sooperdavid from /r/reallifedoodles who is a major content creator) and without content there is no reason to stay in this place you have no attachment to.

          I like to think of this as the ultimate check and balance for sites like this.
