So the mods held votes about making it NSFW and it won. Now Reddit wants to say, "hey you can't do that". permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Skray@kbin.social 49 points 3 years ago (2 children) They messaged /r/Finland and told them that a small subset of users voting on the poll is doing a disservice to the users who don't vote. Apparently on reddit, not voting is the equivalent of a no vote. Imagine if real life politics worked that way. Reddit also lied, they said the sub got 20m unique visitors per month while the moderators can see those stats themselves and said the sub only gets 20k-30k unique visitors. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Lightninhopkins@kbin.social 17 points 3 years ago It's nonsense.
