oh wow, they have voted to only have posts about Melbourne (Florida)! They were ordered by Reddit to reopen or be replaced, looks like the r/pic example is being followed.

It says they asked the community tho…but the subreddit had been locked and there’s no poll. Unless it was on discord.

Uggghhhhh my ASD brain hates this. Why can’t they just be clear about what’s happening. Might just stay here.

Definitely staying here unless you all pack up and move back.

Word. Fuck all this nonsense.

Yeah I want to get on board with the “stick it to the man” vibe but the loss of the DT with no warning after I merrily logged off/deleted the app thinking I’d be back and “seeing” everyone in a few days was genuinely distressing. Mildly distressing but I was still upset to lose a place I had been going to multiple times daily for a year with zero warning. I have been so confused with the lack of clarity and the confusing post they’ve just put up that is very ironically lacking in accessibility/clarity.

Yeah, I feel this. The DT is a great social connection & was pretty anxious about it just disappearing. 🖤

Its been poorly handled i agree. I support their protest on principle but ppl are messy in their execution

[–] Force_majeure122@aussie.zone 3 points 1 year ago

I certainly wasn't asked
