Apparently the admins aren’t too happy with the new form of protest that Reddit moderators found, since NSFW subs don’t run ads. Brought to Reddit users by the zombie admin account u/ModCodeOfConduct!
The admins also removed the entire mod team of r/MildlyInteresting (original link) and replaced it with either employees or sycophants, while giving all mods a 7d suspension ban.
Reddit: “subs belong to the community!”
Also Reddit: “screw the community, this is MY PRECIOUS!”
I’m willing to bet that r/ModCoord will be eventually banned. And the ban message will say something cryptic, vague, and meaningless.
The real fun comes after the mods leave. The new mods won’t keep it up, and I’m betting that 4chan will look at it and say “you know what, we fucking hate lebbit, might as well raid it”.
The only thing 4chan is good for.
Nowadays I browse mostly /vg/ and /a/, but I feel like 4chan is in certain aspects considerably better than Reddit. For example it’s actually easier to have a decent conversation in 4chan than in Reddit.
Perhaps I’m biased though, I’ve been posting in that shithole for more than a decade, for comparison my oldest Reddit account would be 9yo if not banned.
Kind of weird to think about it - 4chan saw Reddit being born, and 4chan will see Reddit die.
It’s like seeing that one popular person you don’t like being hated by all lol.
4chan just feels a lot less organized compared to Reddit or any other social media platform. Which is expected since it is focused on users being anonymous, but there must be a better way to link to boards; it’s kind of overwhelming when you’re on some board and you see some rules like: this can only be posted to /b/ and if you want to talk about that go to /x/.
4chan users actually feel superior. I sometimes see insufferable people on Reddit, but 4chan is where it’s at.
I cannot tell if it is ironic or not, but people there feel like outright Nazis.
And finally I don’t like the funni green texts, they are just not my thing.
I also might be biased because I didn’t browse 4chan nearly as much as I did Reddit.
