If I cannot respond to false statements without fear of punishment, this clearly isn't the place for me; and isn't a place of discussion in any sense of the definition. Thank you for making that clear. Those comments were also was

Sure, I can do that. Edit: Looks like the posts are 36377821, as well as 36378754. Those were the two posts I flagged and responded to address the false statements or false context being put forth after no action appeared to be forthcoming.

You flagged my response here, please review the person I responded to (one level up, and one level down). Anyone making false statements like that is going to be corrected. To do nothing is to accept it by consent and all that entails (Sapi

Dang, is your response directed at me or the original poster, because it looks like you are singling just me out and not the poster about this selectively; If that is the case, you need to take a hard look and rewrite your guidelines so the

I think you missed the point. Community makes reddit work. Many communities while still open are moving off the platform. Some have just said they are doing post freeze such as AskHistorians. This is digg all over again. It didn't happ

They are likely planning on eliminating external apps from using their API. Upon doing that, it no longer becomes feasible to delete your content. They get to keep it forever since they make it so hard to go post by post and delete it. You

These things are fairly simple to game out, I've got some money on reddit surviving but not without taking damage. That being said, I don't agree with it, but as people are well aware there is no good alternative. The game-plan as

That kind of over-generalization is flat out false, biased, and shows a lack of understanding about these things.

Regardless, they have an interesting but relatively sordid history. Its probably just to drive interest for recruitment since tensions are escalating geopolitically and they are probably finding their projections show they are understaffed.

That's flawed in a few ways. With regard to #1 The vast majority of the population are seeking to fill some need when they get online. Its not about popularity, popularity only provides exposure. Its whether that need is being satisfie

I'd like to add that looking at sybil attacks as just a network attack would be a mistake. These type of attacks apply broadly at many different levels, for example the minimum thresholds for amplification/de-amplification can be

Corporations are people, they wait for either the leading or trailing edge and then pivot. Before we had demand-pull inflation due to constrained supply chains, we are now seeing cost-push inflation, and its not about the pandemic spending
