  • I’d like to propose a rule to Politics subreddits. Any time there’s a Federal judge making a decision, have the name of the President that appointed them in parentheses and the year they were appointed. For instance, the judge in this case would read U.S. District Judge Janet Bond Arterton (Clinton, 1995). It would provide a clearer perspective on a few things, including their inherent biases to be nominated by a given president, what was happening in the country/world at the time, and how freaking old the Courts are in general. In case you’re wondering, the Judge in this decision is 79.



  • What they’re really hoping is for more mobile users to be forced into the official app, not the desktop. Desktop people can choose Old.Reddit (for now) and block some or all ads. Mobile users on the app provide a ton of marketable data, including, if I’m not mistaken, location data at least while the app is open. They want the user data and to sell Reddit Premium or ads to users, because there’s otherwise no path to profitability. What they have now is a very slim chance of profit, but their analysts must be huffing that hopium, because they alienated a massive amount of their biggest users, which is who made the site what it is.
