Then they must not want that IPO to happen.

These people live on the San Fran cult compound, popular or not, they think this is just fine and dandy and all the activist firms behind the scenes are pushing them and reddit to this stuff. Literally the only problem they have with the mods is that they made stuff no longer publicly accessible, spez has no problem if you're being banned from /r/politics for having a moderate conservative opinion, and in fact he's fine with that because, most cynically, the Democratic party is more favorable towards H1B1 visas which reddit publicly came out in support of when Trump was getting some regulation of some sort passed.

Shouldwe be reporting mental health concerns for mods so that Reddits sends them the automated "we're here for you" anti-suicide message?

To be fair, they've left /r/askberliners up. Let's see what sort of pressing questions redditors visiting Berlin need to ask:

If you're not familiar with Berghain, it is an old power station that has been turned into the most notorious club in Berlin and one of the most famous techno clubs in the world. The queue is frequently three hours long, and when you get to the front, the bouncers will turn you away if you don't look cool enough or can't name any of the DJs performing sets that night or if you seem too much like a tourist. It looks like this inside:

Also the basement is called Lab.Oratory and is an extreme gay fetish piss dungeon. So no, unsurprisingly, the skanky exclusive debauched warehouse rave is not accessible to someone with a chronic health condition. I'm surprised they didn't bring up an anxiety condition...
Anyway, one of the subreddits that was trying to "work with" the admins to stay closed, /r/minecraft, has (completely unsurprisingly) been forced to open:

Shockingly their little poll that only a few people voted in (and that got brigaded quite heavily) was not convincing enough to the admin enforcer:

So... not power leveling, that implies showing off something not shameful, but... faggotry leveling myself?

On r/squaredcircle there's a thread about the blackout and them reopening. Someone made some faggy post about how the mods were heroes fighting the man, and we dont want them replaced with yes-men. I couldn't resist chiming in that "The mods abuse their power with no accountability far worse than whatever you're afraid of from the admins. They regularly censor and ban people for opinions they don't like. I've seen posts get deleted and probably banned They even forbid mentioning the name Jim Cornette, because they dont like him, even though he's an incredibly important figure in wrestling."

My post was deleted and I was permanently banned from the sub. Ironic considering they post shit like "Fuck Spez, he's a piece of shit." etc. Its not like I posted "Fuck the mods." And ironic that their response to accusations that they ban and censor any opinions they dont like is to... ban and censor.

The entire thread was locked and is now full of deleted comments, which I can tell you the whole thread was overwhelming critical of the mods there. Their lock message was that it was full of "death threats toward moderation". I mean, tell a basement dwelling tranny to step down from moderating several reddits if they want to protest, instead of totalitarianly holding everyone hostage, I guess is telling them to kill themselves in their minds because what else would they do if they actually left Reddit like they bluffed?

Anyway, I thought y'all would get some chuckles out of how Reddit mods are now, after a few hours, locking and banning everyone from their "What should we do?" threads for... not voting the way they wanted.
 
At this point I'm sure some of the smaller subs are afraid of reopening because their users will immediately call them retards.

I'm waiting to see what happens with /r/Linux though considering that was a fairly active sub and God knows you will never get a Linux neckbeard to back down. They'll probably have to force it open.

Spez is a spaz, but he's completely right that if these broom pushing faggots don't want the jerb (they do it for free), they should be replaced by other losers who do.

People like the nightclub malingerer would be hilarious if they weren't so prevalent these days. It made me wonder if the tumblr MUH DISABILITY MUH CUNDISHIONS affectation has spread to non-English speaking countries. I imagine there are fewer benefits to be had in countries where there's no ADA jackpot of gold, because buildings can be 200+ years old, and everything isn't an endless expanse of fucking strip malls as far as the eye can see.

Also, the female friend is probably a troon.

The UK seems pretty bad just from spending a lot of time browsing /r/unitedkingdom and /r/ukpolitics.

Anytime someone mentions DWP (their SSA equivalent) or disability it's like moths to a flame with everyone chiming in about their conditions and how they can't work and blah blah.

Why do you think this is true? It isn't. Even if it were true, it's only true because the admins put in place the mods that do the dirty work so they don't have to. Every site ban you've received has always been an admin pushing the button. BTW one reason reddit used shadowbanning was to artificially inflate post/reply (interaction) numbers. Tell advertisers one thing statistically while having an actually effective lower number while also removing what advertisers don't want to be associated with.

This is just spez's "drain the swamp" moment. Sure, he'll drain the swamp, and replace it with a marshy bog!
 
Wonder what dirt they have on reddit employees

Reddit hackers demand $4.5 million ransom and API pricing changes

"A ransomware group is claiming responsibility for a hack on Reddit’s systems earlier this year — and demanding not just money but policy changes.
BlackCat, a ransomware group, says it was behind the February phishing attack on Reddit, as previously reported by Bleeping Computer. In a post shared by researcher Dominic Alvieri, BlackCat claims to have stolen 80GB of data from Reddit and threatens to release it publicly if demands aren’t met. The group wants a $4.5 million payout in exchange for the data and also demands Reddit roll back its planned API pricing changes that spurred user and moderator protests last week.
At the time of the hack, Reddit said hackers had used a “sophisticated and highly-targeted” phishing attack to get access to internal documents and data, including contact information for employees and advertisers. The company maintained that the hackers hadn’t accessed user data that wasn’t public.
Reddit declined to comment on the record about the hack. Bleeping Computer reports that the BlackCat hack and the incident disclosed by Reddit in February are the same.
BlackCat’s new demands around API pricing changes follow a contentious back-and-forth between Reddit leadership and some of its most engaged users. After Reddit announced it would begin charging developers of third-party apps — potentially to the tune of millions of dollars a year — many top subreddits went dark in response, limiting new posts and closing public access. In an interview with The Verge, Reddit CEO Steve Huffman said the platform was “never designed” to support third-party apps and that the company wouldn’t pull back from its proposed changes.
Reddit previously fell victim to an attack in 2018 in which a hacker gained access to user data, including email addresses and old usernames and passwords"

lmfao
"but before i could learn that there were no hot singles in my area, i had already clicked the link"
at first i thought this could possibly be a disgruntled janny
but i didnt realise the hack had happened months before, so it may instead be that theyre using this API/janny saga as smoke screen for the ransom

Well now all Reddit has to do is say "we do not negotiate with hackers or their supporters" and refuse to budge.
