*I like reddit. I want its fun little spaces to thrive.

Reddit is making this really difficult.*

Agreed, but I don't think they're going to be moving in a positive direction. I believe we have seen the best Reddit will ever be. When a company becomes profit driven in the way Reddit has, it forces the company to make decisions that aren't beneficial to it's users. I understand the decisions they're making, but their "rip the band-aid" method at least lets us see that they're unwilling to compromise on their position. It makes switching to a different platform much easier for me. It just sucks because there are small communities that I thoroughly enjoyed and I don't know if they'll ever recoup.
