That’s a recent quote from Reddit’s VP of community, Laura Nestler. Here’s more of it: This week, Reddit has been telling protesting moderators that if they keep their communities private, the company will take action against them. Any actions could happen as soon as this afternoon.

I think being repetitive is ok, because I continue to see the sentiment out there that everyone who is upset about reddit is delusional and think reddit will be closed in a month, etc.

The reality is more complicated. And I think a lot of people don't get it because a real lot of people actually don't ever see the great parts of reddit that we all loved.

I like to get that message out there as much as possible because saying reddit is ruined for my usage isn't the same as saying it is going to go under.
