Tell that to the admins that just cut a beloved person without prior consultation or a continuity plan.
I'm blown away by what Reddit has been doing in the last few months. I thought it was just me being a get-off-my-lawn old user (since I've been on Reddit like 7-8 years or something) but then I had a young copyrighter (early twenties) talking to me about leaving Reddit for "other places" and that blew me away. I hadn't realized it was starting to trickle down for lack of better words.
Let's think about the fact that this is possible for a company to do this to a full-time employee with several years experience next time an election comes up.
Unfortunately, not all of us get the luxury of advance notice on firings/layoffs
It's like firing someone, then all of the sudden you realize that you need to hire a team of people to replace them, all while your site is down and your servers are on fire (and all of the MBAs are busy looking for someone else to blame so they don't get fired).
Reddit is run by volunteers, remember...
Mostly filtering whichever collection of racists and woman-haters show up when they become defaults. So at least their moderators are getting a break from that.
