There’s a lot of noise with this one. Among the noisiest we’ve seen. Please know that our teams are on it, and like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well. The most important things we can do right now are stay focused, adapt to challenges, and keep moving forward. We absolutely must ship what we said we would.

This was a few days back, but I think it’s important to bring up for the moment. This is just completely convincing me that those running Reddit are entirely out of touch with their moderators and the well-being of their users. Does this make you want to leave or just rub you the wrong way? Have you already left for good or are you still open to using the platform now that more subreddits are reopening?
I’ve personally deleted the Reddit related apps off my phone and replaced them with the webapp for Kbin for now by adding the site to my home screen, until an app is developed and released.
I’m out. I haven’t left for good yet. The time I spend there now is to tell other people about kbin and similar sites. But Kbin is now my main site, and I won’t use reddit for anything other than to move more people here.
That’s a great idea actually. Nice approach on the matter and thanks for spreading the word. I may keep my account just to do the same on desktop. I really don’t want anything reddit related on my phone anymore though. With them forcing the use of their own app and pretty much making their mobile site unusable I’d just have to stick to desktop with ublock origin.
