Probably the closest thing to the burning of the library of alexandria we'll ever experience. Still mourning the loss of all that magnificent art-hoe poon
Redditors just whining about the "morality police" and mourning the "loss of Pornhub". These redditors are unironic "coomers". As much as I hate that word, it is what they are.
No redditors, Reddit, like pornhub, like Tumblr, fucked itself over by allowing any idiot with a camera and an internet connection to post porn they made to their websites. Obviously a system like this is ripe for abuse, no matter what your :ancap-good: beliefs say. Reddit should have implemented proper verification processes from day one, or at least sometime over the past decade, if they had any common sense.
there’s nothing implying that a significant portion of the “coomers” you’re complaining about don’t agree with you there.
Except for the fact that they are constantly talking about the "loss of Pornhub" because of the verification measures. Saying that the website became worse afterwards.
Pornhub deleted millions of videos and implemented a verification system. They were still banned by payment processors. You have a better chance of reaching consensus with terrorists than anti-porn religious nutjobs.
It was part that and part of the fact that Reddit's founders were unironic libertarians. They didn't even believe in basic moderation from an ideological perspective until the website got forced into it.

Haha. I didn't know that. There should be a name for that. For voters who ultimately end up shooting themselves in the head - it's leopard ate their face. Maybe for libertarians it could be bears ate their face.

In the mid-2000s in a small New Hampshire town called Grafton there was an experiment was called the "Free Town Project". It later became the "Free State Project"). The goal was simple: take over Grafton's local government and turn it into a libertarian utopia. The movement was cooked up by a small group of ragtag libertarian activists who saw in Grafton a unique opportunity to realize their dreams of a perfectly logical and perfectly market-based community.
r/technology thread
That thread is a very uncomfortable read

But capitalism though. That would have cut down on profit for Imgur and Reddit.
