    @Pookie1804 Small sub or large, I kind I agree with Reddit on this. The mods that close down their subs in protest are being selfish. I have no issues if mods just leave, but closing the sub down or altering its mission drastically is an insult to all the people that are still using the Reddit site. Just because I might not like something Reddit has doesn’t mean I should prevent other people from enjoying it. They should be allowed to make the dicission to leave reddit on their own and in their own time frame.

        While I understand why there is lots of negative energy about Reddit right now, there’s no need to be hostile to people who still want to use it—it is still a massive repository of information and serves a ton of different communities, after all.

        People should be on Reddit if they want to be on Reddit, and be here if they want to be here, and that’s not an insult to anyone.

        I don’t think Reddit is going to change course here (or, in the future)… at some point protesters are going to have to give up, get out, or become increasingly perceived as trolls.

        I can’t be on several platforms? Out of curiosity I joined other potential reddit alternatives in the past even though I had no plans on leaving Reddit. Same situation here.

          it’s just that your argument sounds awfully similar to the automated message the admins have been sending out to all of the mods that were protesting.
