Totally agree. I ran a very large and influential political sub of over 100k users. The amount of revenue that the subreddit produced from advertising must have been very healthy, the activity of the sub became newsworthy multiple times and in a way that made Reddit look much better than the media typically did. Top-rated AMA of 2019 I believe, just a real juggernaut of reddit-energy. Reddit never did a single thing to support that community. They never assisted the mods when we were being slandered by other political camps, submitting concerns about death-threats was a labyrinthine task, every aspect of moderation was a grind. In that time they implemented the emails, the app telemetry, the thinning of controversial political communities, and a general abandonment of the core ethos of the platform. The admins have horrible reputations for abuse, censorship, editing user comments without consent. They don't even honor Aaron Schwartz anymore. I loved and dedicated a huge part of my life to Reddit for years. It's over now. I'm a refugee here because people can actually talk to one another with a sliver of respect, which you cannot say for the most popular communities on Reddit.
