#redditmigration #reddit One of my friends is a mod of a very large subreddit that went private for the blackout. Last night she received a message saying that she had been stripped of her moderator rights and the subreddit was taken public again. To be very clear, the subreddit members had specifically voted in favor of going private. It seems like reddit will stoop lower and lower to try and break the blackout. I'm seething.

    I’m surprised how quickly they started doing this. Couldn’t weather the protest for even two days.

    In the linked discussion, the sub and the mod are both named - so I’m assuming I’m ok to re-post that here - it is r/tumblr and u/taytay_is_god

    Please post this in as many places as you can, including /r/ModCoord, /r/RedditAlternatives and /r/Save3rdPartyApps (hate to say it, but it’ll probably get more visibility there than on here). It would be great if we could find a way of getting this story into the press, too, but I’m not sure how to go about doing that.

      “No brigading” rules on Reddit don’t apply here, least of all to identifying Reddit users, posts, etc.

    On the one hand, I’m glad the Reddit mods are eating dirt, but on the other, man, fuck Reddit

    So yeah, how’s it feel to get banned when you know you’re in the right and being unable to fight it, punks
