That’s a recent quote from Reddit’s VP of community, Laura Nestler. Here’s more of it: This week, Reddit has been telling protesting moderators that if they keep their communities private, the company will take action against them. Any actions could happen as soon as this afternoon.
I’m noticing this too. F1 Quali threads on Reddit have thousands of replies from hundreds of users, and there was like 8 people this morning in the thread. Building these communities is going to be extremely hard and slow, but just as they ended up on reddit they’ll grow on other platforms too
