Oh, it definitely happens here and everywhere else on the Internet. It seems to be just part of the human condition.

But since this post is bagging on reddit, and I'm still mad at the company's recent decisions, I figured I'd not rock the boat and just bag on reddit too lol

I will henceforth always be down to join in bagging on reddit. It’s just becoming aggressively shit these days. That IPO and the censorship it demands will end up being one of the worst things to ever happen to the site (it already has been, just in preparation for a sterile place for advertisers)—the others:

  1. NEW reddit (old.reddit so much fucking better it’s ridiculous)
  2. The changes to the website under Ellen Pao (who was hired for the sole purpose of being scapegoated for the backlash to said changes)
  3. Ignoring the clear will & interests of their users, e.g. removing the visibility of downvotes
  4. The recent API fiasco
  5. The lack of any real/effectual commitment to curtail karma farming bots and shills.
  6. The powertripping mouthbreathing neckbeard population called “moderators”
