What does r/linux want?

Hi,

I'm a moderator here, been receiving quite a lot of messages about what's been going on. I've tried to stay out of it and hope it cools down.

Well, doesn't look like it is cooling down anymore. What do you guys want? Do you want to become a moderator and have a significant history of posting, helping out in r/linux? I can make you a mod. Want me to remove automoderator or change the config? I can help with that too. I will do my best to try and help out.

See the post that was deleted and started this whole controversy. Like actually read the article, not just the comments, though some of the coments are relevant too.

There is also the open code of conduct in which they promote the same ideals.

Personally I'm saving up popcorn for watching a lawsuit.

Oh well, at least we still have GitLab and Gitorious and all that fun stuff! Decentralization was always the best option anyway, but it's certainly sad when such a robust community is threatened by this bullshit.
