I'm no fonder of his smug, libertarian prepper ass than you are, but personally the best way to make him feel the consequences of his actions is to leave that baggage where it is to rot and just concentrate on making Lemmy and any other alternatives you may be on the kind of community that Reddit used to be and people valued.

I doubt it. It's not a blanket "buy everything" policy; we do have some standards we abide by like significance and value to the collection, the level of interest the community would have in something, how much it's been covered beforehand by reviewers or the media in general, etc.

Even if by some chance we actually did bring something like that into the collection, the policy allows for materials to be challenged by patrons. One probably wouldn't be enough to get something removed, but I imagine something like that kind of manifesto wouldn't stop at just one challenge.

I remember there was some talk when the news first came out that the mutual lawsuits were getting to the discovery stage and both sides likely had documents they didn't want seeing the light of day. Could have been another factor in just deciding to bin the lawsuit and band together.

US consumers are about to get REAL familiar with the phrase "force majeure".

I work in a library. It's part of our collection policy that we don't discriminate as to what viewpoints not to buy books for. Plenty of times I've had to grit my teeth and smile while helping some senior citizen put themselves on the waiting list for the latest Fox News anchor book or random ragebait. If we have to swallow that, then it better go the other way as well.

I have some helpful information posts saved for future use, which I'll try to archive if the subs they were on are up, but given some are now talking about extending the blackout and other users are deleting their posts, if the stuff isn't there I'm just going to stop using Reddit altogether. No sense prolonging the inevitable.
