Surprising nobody, Reddit Corp threatening a gaming sub of a fanatically anti-corporate video game doesn't go as they'd hoped.

The mod team have basically decided that "Fuck Reddit" is the way forward, and appear to have practically total support of their entire sub for the choice taken.

Presumably, we're about to get a Cyberpunk community on Fediverse soon. :p

Reddit is a poorly designed wooden ship full of holes. Lots and lots of sailors went down into the holds out of goodness of their hearts to bale out the ship, plug up the holes and keep the ship afloat. The captain thought it was his wisdom and excellence that kept the boat sailing. At one point the captain and his officers decided they should take on some new cargo, sail the seven seas, transport things and people everywhere for a premium price, pay the sailors underneath them nothing and take all the profits while telling everyone how great their ship was.

The sailors down below are now figuring out that their work is being taken for granted. They start leaving their posts, go up on deck, breath the fresh air, jump off and swim to shore, walk off at port, hop on a passing ship called the HMS Lemmy and HMS Kbin where their work is more appreciated.

The three masted ship Reddit is now slowly taking on water as it sails out into the horizon heavily laden with gold bullion, stores of grain and a hundred officers congratulating themselves as the holds leak little by little.
