oh lol i missed that there was even this thing happening with the cub stuff. lol. i pretty much don't look at the news thing.
someone said it feels like the admins are looking at the audience and turning a dial and yeah, it does kinda feel like that, but i've felt this whole time that they seem to be running this place like it's a business, so i'm not surprised they'd make abrupt changes when the users loudly disagree with a decision they've made.
at the end of the day, this site is their jobs, right? they need to have a userbase that is willing to give them money. they don't run ads. of course they're going to go "oh uhhh actually that was the wrong choice and you're right! sorry! reversing course!!" when a bunch of people go "ok i'm gonna leave then lol."
for better or worse this is what you get with a centralized platform like cohost. i'm still just over here like "how come dark mode isn't actually dark"
