How Reddit Was Destroyed

The power now resided in individual subreddits, obviously the most popular ones. There was a power grab to become moderators of these subreddits.

Once the default subreddits were controlled, drastic changes began to occur.

Not to mention the fact that default subreddit rules are now completely refined, sophisticated and purposely worded to allow maximum mod-interpretation.

We now have an entirely new way to view upvote/downvote scores. A user used to be able to see their score. But now, everything is fuzzed.

I believe this can essentially be boiled down to not just greed, but controlling and manipulating the information that the millions of people see on a daily basis. Reddit gets billions of views.
