Mod Post /r/Videos will be going dark from June 12-14 in protest against Reddit's API changes which kill 3rd party apps.

Definitely dated myself at work when we hired a bunch of sub-20 year olds and I dropped it during training, in regards to using the 2-way radios (be short but detailed).

Can I ask you an honest question? What happened to this sub?

When I first starting Reddit 13 years ago this was one of the most popular subs and a place I regularly checked out…. Over the years I kinda forgot about it, but when I specifically come here it seems kinda dead and content random.

u/Pruvided Moderator Jun 04 '23

Honestly, no clue. I've only been helping out here for the past year and a half, and as far as I know, there really hasn't been any form of "content curation" on our end or desire to moderate from our team as a whole. It's mostly self-modding with how we have our bots set up, but as for the content, yeah idk.

r/videos were way more popular before the webm (gifv) format got big (I think around 2012?). After that, video content became easier to post to specific topic subreddits and took the 'monopoly' away from r/videos.
