@narinarinari @denschub reddit is a poor choice and exclusionary since they threw out any mods for lackeys in prep for ipo, seems to be pr managed by the mealymouthed opening lines too.

"It’s clear in retrospect that we should have communicated more on this one, and so I wanted to take a minute to explain our thinking and clarify..." uh huh, corporatespeak is shibboleth.

@engarneering The mods of r/Firefox are still the original mods from before the blackout etc. None of the mods are Mozilla-staff, btw - and quite often, they don't do what we (Mozilla) want. Which is fine - because that subreddit is a community resource.

If you have factual concerns or suggestions, the GitHub repo hosting the explainer (github.com/mozilla/explainers/) also has an issue tracker.

@denschub sorry, dont mean to dogpile, but reddit is inaccessible to me since their changes. Just my opinion, sorry for your rough pr day i hope people are kind because we like firefox, but the situation, it dont smell good.

@engarneering Nah, I get it. I'm not a huge fan of Reddit myself either, but I could find something bad to say about literally any platform.

You could argue that this should have been on blog.mozilla.org, but that blog currently doesn't support comments. Folks decided that offering people an easy way to have a conversation is more important than maximizing reach, especially since we all know full well that this will be linked everywhere anyway.
