Yeah, Reddit has really turned into a shit show. People speculate that the people in charge are trying to make it more "advertiser friendly" to make more money, but no one knows exactly why they have turned a 180 on their free speech stance.
 
They don't seem to understand that their customers aren't the people posting on the site. Those are their commodities. Their customers are the advertisers. They're selling the people reading to the people buying ads.

Well, if you drive off all those people to satisfy a tiny little horde of SJWs, you've kissed your main assets goodbye.

Those people will go elsewhere.

Remember digg?

If you don't, that's my point.
 
I still can't believe reddit banned employee bargaining and said it's for their best interests. This is how you treat indentured servants, not workers who can quit if they are treated badly and don't have a say in anything.

And it's so dumb because it means reddit just has to guess what the employees want with every new contract. If they guess too low, they lose the employee. If they guess too high, they spend more money than they had to.

Not getting started with reddit's assertion salaries should be determined by race.

I really hope these people aren't representative of other San Franciscans.

These reddit kooks seriously creep me out. They remind me of Idi Amin and his party. After his British backed hostile takeover of Uganda, Idi Amin expelled the Indians who ran like 80% of the businesses. Members of his party were allowed to keep any Indian property they could lay their hands on, so there was a mad dash - people literally sprinted the streets, claiming buildings. But none of them knew how to run anything. So in a single day, all shipping stopped. Famine ensued. The general population had no choice but to return to subsistence agriculture.

Actually, the reddit situation sounds very similar to me. What I heard, the feds went after one of the founders (for also founding silk road). He committed suicide. Soon afterward, all the other founders vanished from the company. Does anyone have more detailed information on what exactly went on, or did NDAs take care of that?

The only thing you got right was that Aaron Swartz committed suicide.

One of my best friends' parents were Indians thrown out of Uganda for no fucking reason at all. They're much better off in the UK, though.

You're thinking of Ross Ulbricht.
 
Many lolcow individuals and lolcow communities have been discovered on reddit, or are involved in drama on reddit on a constant basis. It isn't just in the obscure corners either, all of the main (aka "Default") subreddits are filled with morons and drama of their own variety.

I think that it would be a good idea to find hilarious subreddits and people and post about them in this thread before they get spun off onto there own, should they be new.

As for the already existing threads on reddit communities/people, they'll still stay up and act as discussion and observation for those specific topics.

But with a general thread it would cover the entire website, mainly default subs or as of right now undiscovered gems.

Theoretically (and I'm just saying theoretically) we could totally have a Reddit subforum like we do with Tumblr. Tumblr and Reddit are two sides of the same coin. Here, I made a little chart to help demonstrate that:

Pretty sure all of you knew about the r/news Orlando shitstorm, where r/news reported about the Orlando mass shooting, but after that it turned out that it's an Islamic attack, they immediately locked the thread and deleted posts about it. Response:
