Redditors rely on these spaces for information, support, entertainment, and connection. https://old.reddit.com/r/ModSupport/comments/14a5lz5/mod_code_of_conduct_rule_4_2_and_subs_taken/jo9wdol/?context=3 https://old.reddit.com/r/ModSupport/comments/14a5lz5/mod_cod... I actually take issue with polling to shut down communities as well. Linux and many other huge FOSS projects effectively can't change their license because they are composites created from contributions of many people so you'd need to get _unanimous_ agreement from all those users to actually change the license. In fact, if a sub goes private, that content is still there, but even if you created the post/comment, you cannot edit/delete it without nuking your whole account!
