“There’s a lot of noise with this one. Among the noisiest we’ve seen. Please know that our teams are on it, and like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well,” he reportedly wrote. “We absolutely must ship what we said we would. The only long term solution is improving our product, and in the short term we have a few upcoming critical mod tool launches we need to nail.” [...] Meanwhile, Huffman warned staff about wearing Reddit-branded apparel in public for the time being. "Some folks are really upset, and we don’t want you to be the object of their frustrations," he wrote.

Kinda wish I modded a larger sub than I do, just so my keeping it private longer would matter more.

I think it's the smaller subs that are doing the work tbh. I don't really care that I'm missing out on /r/videos or any of the big generic subs but the small niche communities that formed around my hobbies are hard to see go. I have a buddy who's pissed his local team's sub is down too.

Keep up the good fight, small subs are just as important!
