Recently I tried to get some advice from some locals and posted in a larger subreddit.
Post got immediately removed because it’s a duplicate of a year old post which is only remotely related.
That place can be so stupid.
Rules of r/AskSocialScience:
All claims in top level comments must be supported by citations to relevant social science sources. No lay speculation.
This is likely why you see that.
Those rules are never applied consistently.
They exist as cover to remove the things the community owners don’t want to see.
Subreddits with strict rules were the best. Tight posting and commenting guidelines allowed them to avoid the homogenization that took over every major sub.
If that is the case … holy cow is everyone here wrong BIG time.
I mean…it’s Reddit? So it kinda fits?
This is what walled gardens create. Loss of information

Uh, no thanks.
That was the part that made me laugh.
“You’re free to join the conversation”
“Am I?”
“Fifty thousand people used to live here; now it’s a ghost town”
Basically r/news except it’s all [removed] or [ Removed by Reddit ]
“[deleted]” means a user removed it. It’s probably users who nuked their accounts (I’m one of them!)
Dictatorship. Voting is democracy, and they don’t want you to have it.
My question us where everyone went. They don’t seem to have joined the Fediverse.
TikTok? YouTube? Blue Sky?
