It's very easy, they created a product that was better than the alternatives. It's better than forums, it's better than IRC, it's better than teamspeak, and the list goes on. Turns out it's a pretty easy product to

Is hardbin.com currently down? It says it "refused to connect." btw isn't that wording wrong? Shouldn't it be that it refused to let me connect?

Apple can't do anything like that. It would be a judge, after deliberation and taking into account the facts and the law.

Just the fact that the new mods don't think they have the right to keep the entire community hostage makes them better than the replaced ones, yes. Although it would be better not to have any mods at all.

Where is this conversation going? "You don't know how hard mods have it ;( ?" I think subreddits are better off without mods. Therefore, I have never modded one.

Most of the smaller communities only exist because someone was first to take the subreddit name, period. That doesn't say anything about the quality of their mods. And as I said most mods are power tripping and/or want to control

In that screenshot, the font is too big and improperly hinted. About paddings and margins I didn't say anything because that's really old. They haven't got that right since the KDE 3 days.

Noto Sans is a "version" of Arial and is inappropriate for a user interface. I have looked at screenshots of ChromeOS and, for obvious reasons, they don't seem to be using it - they use Roboto and Product Sans just like they
