I’m seeing two posts from the mods that are sneerworthy content that aren’t meta-posts announcing the de-sunsetting of r/sneerclub. I just wanna know what’s up.

FWIW, I will stay here and probably won’t participate in the subreddit out of laziness.

    i have a reading account for when i need to read reddit via logged-in account, so i went and asked.

    ETA-1: and got banned for asking.

    ETA-2: the subreddit’s description still has “sub moved to https://awful.systems” in the old view.

      thread closed by some guy called “giziti”?

      Looks like he was a mod as recently as a year ago, but doesn’t know what’s up either. Seems weirdly hostile to us, though.

      Edit: it’s all good, nvm!

        not only the thread is closed, i was banned for asking that question:

        transcript follows

            it was always a risk; questioning someone’s integrity, be it directly or indirectly, is rarely welcomed.

            needless to say, i’m even less inclined to resume any activity on reddit.

              bonus: some *chan-pilled gobshite thinks this branch is not cool enough (cw: ableism)

              It has no reach. Sorry. I myself go there every few weeks to check last threads, but becoming insular autistic circlejrk circlejerking over other autist made it intellectualy impotent, sorry.

                Yeah bad vibes on the undead sub. Amazed by the person goign ‘it can be hard to reach new people on the fediverse’ when there have been a lot more randos who don’t know what this place is here, and some threads went the lemmiverse equiv of viral.

                Lol at them thinking sneerclub was a great intellectually potent place vs a place to say ‘look at this extremely offended dork’ a lot.
