Surprising nobody, Reddit Corp threatening a gaming sub of a fanatically anti-corporate video game doesn’t go as they’d hoped.
The mod team have basically decided that “Fuck Reddit” is the way forward, and appear to have practically total support of their entire sub for the choice taken.
Presumably, we’re about to get a Cyberpunk community on Fediverse soon. :p
Honest communication hasn’t ever been the strong point of Reddit staff but they’re really taking it to new lows lately.
It started with “those third party apps are using up all our internets” as a mask for “the API was free because your content was borderline worthless but now we can sell it to AI companies” and the smell of bullshit has only grown stronger.
