      I miss the good old days when reddit admins still pretended to be part of the community. Anybody remember the “when this post is [x hours old] reddit will go down for [xyz]” posts? Then the admins were in the thread cracking jokes with everyone about the fact that their servers were powered by hamster wheels and they couldn’t afford a programmer? Oh how the times have changed…

        The admins also liked those days better than current times, I’m sure. It’s just a money issue. Reddit wasn’t profitable back than (still isn’t, I think), so it needed an investor. An investor watch it’s money back eventually, so you’re gonna have to make changes. Often times those changes suck
