    Until the past month or so I was of the mindset that reddit was a really good site and the admins are just not very good at making decisions that please the userbase. Lately I'm pretty convinced that the admins are actively running the site into the ground. rip reddit

      It's the move to San Francisco.

      Yishan gave a deadline of two weeks to everyone save a handful (including Victoria) to decide if they wanted to relocate to San Francisco. It was leaked to DHH who publicly crucified Yishan for it. Reddit obviously got wind of DHH's article and piled on some pressure on Yishan who extended a grace period up to the end of the year (3 months).

      Most of reddit's employees quit. This means that reddit is now staffed by people who don't know reddit much.
