    Great thoughts here and the message resonates with me on a personal level - specifically the concept that Reddit as a platform does NOT have the same goals and motivations of the people who use it for community.

    It takes effort to make posts and comments and provide your perspective on the posts and comments of others. That effort is worth it in many cases because users often share common interest with their fellow users, and everyone can benefit from that.

    This effort, however, should be placed on a solid foundation. At a ground level Reddit does not share the same goals and can choose to limit the ability to engage and assemble at any time at it’s own discretion. I feel it’s so important to remember that as we continue building our own space using open source and community hosted platforms like this one.
