> Had*. Ever since Aaron died, it's become a censorious bubble.

Aaron Swartz had very little involvement with Reddit for several years before his death, and also some of Reddit's most notorious (at least at the time) "censorship" actions took place before his death.

It's a little unfair to his memory to conflate the two things, especially given that he spent the last five years of his life doing things he deeply cared about (and which had nothing to do with Reddit corporate strategy or policy).

I agree with this. SOPA, PIPA, Net Neutrality (RIP), Bernie Sanders gaining national recognition, and so many other positive Reddit things happened after his death.
