> * June 16: 'An Update about our Community' (text started with links, 'Here is a summary of the changes which prompted the recent Blackout. Here's our announcement for doing the Blackout....' and then 'Hence we wish to take another poll of community feedback...'

i'm confused about your post, is this 4 topics? was this all one long title? what was this except exactly as what i described it as?

and that's my point, it wasn't as transparent as it should have been

and if they want a blackout, so be it, but propose another place for people to aggregate. why destroy a community over this pettiness that's all but gone away since it happened? why does the same end result that happened in CrossValidated need to happen there too? what good does this do in the world?

its all passive aggressiveness when communication can literally solve everyones problem, especially when this was the issue with the reddit admins to begin with! why are they acting like the reddit admins by refusing to communicate properly? its all so ridiculous
