I think the moderation changes will affect even the most apathetic user in the end. I'm already seeing some of my subs start locking threads more readily instead of trying to keep the discussion going. If that becomes the norm, the value of Reddit from both a business and user perspective will take a serious hit.

The post about the Supreme Court and affirmative action was locked on the news sub

What kind of sense does that make? The number 1 post on r/all …. Locked for new comments? Must not have liked what people were posting about it.

Which is just terrible moderation
