For the same reason employers and unemployment insurance is moving from termination, to separation. Less of an inherent negative connotation.

Unfortunately, they fail to realize that the system itself is what created the negative connotation in the first place. So it too will be replaced with yet another synonym in the future.

I did this too. The only time I regretted doing it was when I lost my snappening badge

This is really the only fair I'm struggling with, wick access to the thread content before replying is important. I'm trying to avoid commenting on similar threads atm so I don't accidentally include something from a different thread

I modded 2 niche communities, and it was a relief to leave and resign. I haven't felt so free to express a real opinion in a long time. Even alts aren't safe because you have an chair linguists.

Mods of bigger subs, good and bad do a job I wouldn't ever want

Ugh chat. The only reason I had the official app, and every part of it was under protest. But the makeup resell subreddit was an absolute steal for unused, still sealed product, I probably both 10s of thousands of dollars of high end makeup for pennies on the dollar over the last 12 years. But the second chat was introduced all the sellers used that instead of pms.

This

Both ironically, and unironically

Yeah, unfortunately the good outweighs the bad in regards to this I think.

Steve Huffman went on a media offensive where he attempted to cast aggrieved users and moderators, many of whom give countless hours of their free time to make Reddit the vibrant platform it is today, as unreasonable. “These people who are mad, they’re mad because they used to get something for free, and now it’s going to be not free,”

Oh the fucking irony of the guy whose site can't survive without millions of free hours from dedicated mod teams, who spend their entire duration criticised (sometimes tightly, sometimes wrongly,) shit on, harassed, and often doxxed and threatened by the user base

So cute and great pattern! Did she draft it herself? If yes, does she sell designs, if no would she share where she got it?
