The shadow remains cast.

Thank you for 12 years of fun, talklittle

Your intentions are good, but to be fair to the reddit crowd, the way your post was written reads a lot like an advertisement. Trying to convince others like this is typically unproductive - people will just go to wherever the content is. It’s up to all of us to generate that content and give them a reason to migrate out of their comfort zone.

You should just start up a magazine yourself if you want one to exist, even if you’ve never moderated before. It’s not that big a deal at this early stage and if it grows big enough, you can always hand it off to someone else.

I have no insight into the internal discussions of the /r/retrogaming mod team, but my DMs with DreadedChalupacabra prior to the blackout indicated that they were heavily in favor of the protest. I think this turn of events was just coincidental.

Agreed. I plan to make some posts around June 29th in the subreddits I frequented offering their alternatives in the fediverse - right before the 3rd party deadline.

I made a magazine that’s a successor to both r/CRTgaming and r/CRT: https://kbin.social/m/CRTs/

June 30th is gonna be real interesting once the reality of the situation sets in. I encourage everyone here to be the change you want to see - don’t be afraid to participate here and create a new magazines for any niche interest you may have!

I just recently figured out what IANAL meant after a decade plus on Reddit.
