Goodbye and thanks for all the fish. Reddit has decided to shit all over the users, the mods, and the devs that make this platform what it is. Then when confronted doubled and tripled down going as far as to THREATEN the unpaid volunteer mods that keep this site running.

The thing is, some people in positions of minor "power" actually are reasonable people.

Adblock subscription lists is a good example. If someone moderating a list was biased, they could easily fuck with their users. They could block parts of websites that they had grudges against. Or un-block ads because a company gives them money. But they aren't assholes, so they don't try to do shit like that. Also, there's multiple different adblock lists, so you can subscribe to multiple for redundancy, or switch if one goes to shit.
