that's the piracy sub... the userbase was pissed at the idiot mods taking the sub down for the API protest, which reddit was obviously super happy about the pirate sub closing down.
i'm pretty sure they regularly railed against the idiot mods to the point that the mods said fuck this and left
That's basically the whole reason an entire instance popped up dedicated to the topic (db0) AND its main community is the 10th largest in the lemmyverse.
The main mods and a whole lot of people came here.
This is one of the success stories of a major sub migrating here.
I guess this is how they'll learn about the effects of ruining the experience for moderators and content creators, a majority of Reddit's scabs are consumers so naturally when creators and mods leave quality goes in the toilet.

Oddly it wouldn't seem entirely like that since when it shut down they basically forced it to reopen. Which is funny since they dislike it so much, guess the traffic and ad revenue is more important to them.

completely right i overlooked that rather important detail. chain/mass emailing all mods at once without really thinking it through maybe?
Who cares about mods tbh
If i couldn't use infinity, i couldn't use reddit
That is very true, Reddit without Infinity is a miserable experience.
The mods closed the pirate sub and Reddit reopened it, so now Reddit is liable for it.
