At the end of the day, I think the key is that the subreddit rallied, rebounded and is hopefully now in a better place.

Stuff happens but the key is reversing the mistake. And a lot of other folks probably would have yolo'ed and never come back. So cheers for keeping your ear to the ground.

Cheers. Been on some extra long walks thinking on this stuff. It does not seem like Reddit itself has a functional mechanism for making sure that their generic subreddits like r/massachusetts have sensible leadership.

Sadly I'm not even sure they have an interest in making sure subs like this have reasonable leadership.

Their approach may be subjectively "reasonable" to them, but it just seems like another avenue to help sway the opinions of the masses however it favors them.
