Let's hope the mods over there decide to push this place and then go dark indefinitely
@Invincible_World @Mijn_Bergkamp yeah, especially given the admins might be forcing subs to go public and ejecting existing mods: https://famichiki.jp/@Tsutsuku/110537730270070245
Went to see what was going on over there, there's a load of people in the daily thread completely missing the point of the protest.
Hopefully just a loud minority
Yeah 'I use the official app, it's fine for me, what's the problem' just shows the mods really needed to put up an explanation before going dark.
I think they did put up an explanation and unfortunately most people are too lazy to read or didn't even bother because "it doesn't concern them I use the official app" eventhough if they read it, they'll understand what this takes away.
They didn't put it on the notice when they closed it down unfortunately
Unfortunately, I think what the mods of /r/soccer and /r/gunners learnt today is that their users don't give a shit about them (ie. mods and third party creators) or any greater cause. They just want their subs back.
These people don't even realise in their race for karma whoring they are free content generators for reddit who in turn do nothing to improve the experience (just push more ads and propaganda).
