View submission: New feature: AutoMod will create sticky comments on link posts that link to Archive.is archives of the link

View parent comment

I somewhat agree with you regarding the r/politics sticky, but I think that's more a consequence of their message than the mere presence of the comment. It sets a tone (in combination with the general tone of the mods and userbase) which I do believe affects the conversation.

This sticky is just offering an alternative way to consume content. It's not there to dictate or inform the discussion. If I could make the sticky comment auto-collapse, I would, but I don't think that's possible.

Yeah I'm super skeptical of any changes made to the way Reddit operates. It's not broken in my opinion and has been great before many of the changes that have taken place. I guess we'll see how this one runs the course or plays out. Hope it adds to the greatness of it all and doesn't distract from it. Thanks for answering the comments on this thread. Peace.
