Are people flocking back to reddit? Is the revolt over already?

    Mod here.

    The thing that would help the most is if people actually, you know, posted stuff?

    We haven’t flocked back to Reddit, but it’s difficult to remember to stop by when almost nothing changes day to day.

      It’s very specific community and I would imagine the content suitable for it is rare so you would need many pairs of eyes to find more content. The community needs to grow much more.

      I’m just lurking here occasionally (I would check it more often if the app made me pay attention to my subscriptions) and if I were to find content I might hesitate to post because maybe mods would think it’s not renaissance enough. But I’ll try to remember this community if I ever find some accidental renaissance elsewhere.

        We’re being more lax this time around, at least for now, because the community is small.

        We had to be stricter in the subreddit because the volume of posts was insane and anytime something didn’t quite “measure up” to peoples’ (absolutely batshit insane) expectations, the comment section demanded mod blood sacrifices.

        So if something doesn’t quite “measure up”? Eh, no big deal. We’re not writing down the usernames of the naughty users that post something that’s 20% too baroque.
