No one guessed this but targetting crypto/stock communities makes more sense than nsfw, they love shit like this
i think they went after OF/NSFW accounts because of 2 reason: 1 is there was a obvious troll bot spamming htier porn AI there constantly, 2nd is reddit isnt getting any revenue from the OF accounts that are earning per/account(i dont know how to they are getting money from that) so they banned the of ones.
How long will mods of big subs have the right to refuse before Reddit decides they know what's best for the users and paywalls them anyways?
from another source, i heard only 92 powermods, own like 500 subreddits, some of them are admin, or admin-priveleges too.
theres only 92 controlling the 500 top subs, so not long. and those are the powermods, that most likely has reddit admin's ear(direct line of communications).
That was my first thought. Mods found out how much power they actually had when reddit forced all subreddits open when the API debacle occurred. Wondering if some of the defaults or smaller communities will even get a shot at saying no.
Das tritt nach meiner Kenntnis... ist das sofort! Unverzüglich!
That takes to my knowledge... it is immediately! Forthwith!
Remember when sites would make bad decisions and then just, you know... fucking die? Reddit's entire existence is owed to Digg imploding like the Titan submarine.
Notice how that doesn't happen anymore? No matter how egregious their infractions, no movements away from Twitter or Facebook - no matter how deeply they are infiltrated/compromised by runaway fascism/capitalism - nothing has an impact. No backlash, no matter how huge - is strong enough to shutter these sites and make them stop being money-printing operations.
It's almost like there is an infinite money glitch going on and no matter what, if you're in the "in" crowd, your shit gets to stay around no matter how much everybody thinks it smells like shit.
Hm.
Because the Internet was smaller and was made up of select demographics.
Now, something that's completely unacceptable to some of the population won't even register with the majority.
Perhaps I should start an investing community. I’m not much of a WSB, but investing can be worthwhile.
WSB wasn't about investing, though... it was about watching idiots lose their life savings in particularly stupid and amusing ways.
I think a friendly “how to get started” community would be better than the big peepee energy of WSB.
Itll never be as useful as wsb was precovid, whenever they removed fds and any mention of what they meant is around the time that sub stopped being useful
I love how people under NDA always feel the need to announce they're party to information you don't have.
It's such a weird human instinct to loudly assert that you know something but you're not going to share what it is.
Wasn't this the community where you would just buy gamestop and amc? Who the fuck would pay money to access that?
People that pay for blue checkmarks
yes it was the one saved gamestop from getting destroyed by a investment group/ and a PE firm, the ones that destroyed (toysrus,sears,red lobster), if seen the ceo of SEARS he looks pure evil.
Reddit keeps opting communities to features that make no sense for them. Recap, talks, community awards, etc, which only fit a tiny number of communities.
If they want a "Pay" group they should make deals with sites that are currently behind paywalls. Examples - NYT and substack. Then they create a group that offers access to multiple pay wall sites going through a red sub. It would be easy for them to sell. Why pay multiple sites as an individual when you could sub and pay to join one reddit group that offered access to multiple sites that you like and the cost is less than the individual subscriptions. It would give the current pay wall sites a larger reach and increase their profits even allowing for reddit getting a discounted price from them.
