View submission: Announcing Consolidated Pinned Posts on Android
This idea is pure dogshit, period. We might need yo visit a thread multiple times for moderation reasons (heated debate, etc...) and this auto-nesting would make keeeping tabs on the flow of the discussion an absolute pain.
Furthermore, if we struggle already to have users read a lone admin post, if it's nested, it'll 100% be ignored, leading to possible suspensions/bans that wouldn't be understood at all for rule breaches we'd notify about in a post who'd get auto-nested.
Lastly, none of the admins of the subreddit I'm a mod of give a crap about "engagement". What we care about is that the information is clearly accessible, even in a debate, and this "feature" directly goes against the goals of the team. This is even dangerous, as in the case of the subreddit, we help share information to people who are at risk of being taken away to facilities like Paris Hilton was, meaning that time is absolutely vital, and the more resources we can share to help the person, the more we can push towards a successful avoidance of those facilities.
The auto-nesting directly goes against this, effectively putting users that seek help at risk of missing extremely important information.
This change needs to be ***immediately scrapped***, period.
There's nothing here!
