Yes, the CEO did a really shitty thing. If we burned down the website of every company where someone in power did something shitty, we'd have no websites left.
If you don't want to moderate, step down. Let the current moderators choose replacements. If you want to maintain the ability to shut it down if it becomes a cesspool, then just don't go to r/golang unless you hear it's going south and nuke it when it is going down. It doesn't feel like a cesspool right now, to me. Maybe moderators see a lot more of that, I don't know. I highly doubt the CEO of reddit is going to go slumming in r/golang and edit our posts about yet another web framework or why go should really have tagged unions. Reddit is an incredibly useful resource that has a very large userbase to leverage with a familiar interface for a ton of people. If you want to makes something better, by all means make something better. But don't drive our bus into a lake without finding alternate transportation for everyone currently riding. Make another official site that isn't an abandonware mailing list, give it official status, *make the go team be active there,* and I'm sure people will flock to it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
