RE: r/Bitcoin and r/BTC are Both Guilty of Censorship + Why Steemit is a Better Platform for Moderate Discussion

in #bitcoin7 years ago

I don't think it is necessarily going to go out of business. I just think moderators need to be brought to heel. Reddit has gone from a community to talk about just about anything, to a community of echo chambers. If you don't echo a certain ideology in a certain sub-reddit, you're going to be downvoted to oblivion.

While this is certainly a bad place to be in for Reddit, it's less of a problem with the site and more of a problem with the moderators. Each subreddit needs to hold the sub's mods accountable for their actions. Reddit is much like a free market economy, where, if your sub sucks because of oppression, supression, or downright censorship, another sub will arise and upend the original. Redditors just need to hold mods accountable.
