if you do leave it to a poll please do not leave it to upvotes/downvotes like pics did, way to easy to astroturf or bot

/r/politicalcompassmemes for example (and others i'm sure) had users comment under the option they want and i think it's a much better polling method - https://old.reddit.com/r/PoliticalCompassMemes/comments/14cwd7a/protest_over_api_changes_next_steps/

I personally hope the subreddit comes back online as soon as possible, having it go dark a short time after the Aggorat trailer dropped felt like shit, dissecting tidbits is the best part of PoE on reddit and i am hopelessly blue-balled in that regard.

That being said, while the reddit PoE community has it's faults, you mods have honestly been exceptional, so props to you guys, and Reddit's recent narrative trying to pit users against mods is pretty infuriating when applying it to subreddits like this.

I do hope you maintain this lemmy community, though it will take time for user influx. Like many in the community (since we tend to skew older) I've seen social media rise and platforms come and go, and the only things that lead to migration is either a killer new feature (nothing in sight to kill reddit) or a platform going to shit. And I kind of wish you guys would actually let reddit eat itself alive, it will either course-correct or collapse and we can finally move on. We have a saying in my country something to the tune of "if you don't let someone die, they won't let you live" and it really applies here, let Reddit face the consequences of it's actions.
