I'm not sure what you mean by "those boards", but the mass redaction and removal of comments is a site-wide thing at this point. It isn't unique to a certain type of community, demographic, or interest.
- rchaud 4y agoIt absolutely is not. Maybe on a thread about The Little Mermaid and whatever other culture war nonsense topic grown adults bicker about, but I don't see anything like that on r/webdev, r/android, r/buttcoin or other popular subs.
- iwillbenice 4y agoI'm not purposely trying to be adversarial with you, but you listed 3 technology subreddits as examples, when my original comment was referencing non-technology subreddits. To the point of bickering - that's human nature. I expect humans to argue over the shade of blue, sneakers of the month, or whatever. What I don't expect humans to do is regress mentally to some child-like viewpoint of erasing and censoring any opposing viewpoints. Reddit is radically different than it was 10 years, and not in a healthy, engaging way. Browse some non-technology subreddits and you will quickly spot the echo-chamber effect and group think in action.
