Reddit has a different problem: most of the moderation and most of the content came from power users who are now jumping ship en masse, and Reddit, Inc doesn't have anywhere near enough personnel to replace them. They're a minority on Reddit as they are on Netflix, but whereas Netflix can live without them, Reddit cannot. With them gone, it'll soon become a wasteland of spam and trolls like Usenet. This kills the platform.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
