Looks like it had about 1000 subscribers: https://subredditstats.com/r/macOSVMs
Obligatory: fuck spez
I imagine there are thousands of subs with 1000-5000 subscribers. Sure they keep the biggest subs open but it’s quite a loss.
For whom? For Reddit? Not really. I mean, in the long term it is, but corporates are about maximizing short-term profits.
Why pretend we never measure value in things other than money? It’s obviously a loss to the user experience for those who haven’t moved to offer sites, and a loss to the knowledge base that users had built there. I think you know that’s what’s being discussed here, yet you’re only countering from reddit’s productive of what would constitute a loss… for some unimaginable reason.
