nobody doubted that the worst of reddit would take over after we left

Good. Let them drive away all other people and let it become a miserable site for miserable people

For $8 a month.

That's the idea... It's a protest of a different kind. Still makes the point about moderation needed by people who do it for free.

I demodded myself from shittyadvice before I destroyed my account, but prior to that I posted my idea for what SA should do. I'm convinced that sub exists to cordon off all the trolls so they don't ruin the rest of Reddit but giving shitty advice elsewhere. My plan was just lock the sub but tell everybody in there to spread the love and Make Reddit Shitty Again, aka MRSA. We'd spread like an incurable disease.
