Reddit was a cool place when I first discovered it during the Digg exodus. Sadly, it was too fragile to stay as good as it was, and the repeat drama caused by the admin's mismanagement took its toll on the goodwill. The company responded to this by becoming more adversarial to users, and there's no sign they will stop pinching users in some way, whether it be their free time, money, or otherwise. We just need a public way to talk to each other about niche topics without the toxic middle man.
