    I’m very sorry if that was taken personally, that’s not how I meant it. You and I, discussing the situation here on KBin, aren’t trolling anyone.

    Gotcha. Glad we got that misunderstanding cleared up.

    But a group of users are doing hurtful and troublesome things

    Yeah, it’s a form of civil disorder. We should keep in mind they aren’t doing this because they enjoy causing trouble, but because they feel that basically this is their only way to be heard.

    Those who were banned or demoted, I’d need to know the particulars.

    That’s why I gave links. But would agree it’s reasonable to consider this on a case-by-case basis.

    Over time, I’ve come to accept the essential fact of disability accommodation - companies weigh costs
    accessibility measures will not be taken at any time.

    I guess I should be grateful that I live in a country where things like this are considered a human right. The semi-galling fact about this in reddit’s case is that others stepped in to fill that accessibility gap, and reddit basically didn’t care and chucked them out the window.

    Reasonable, but if reddit goes then something else will rise to replace it. I never used digg but apparently it used to lead on all three of these points, until digg shot itself in the foot and refused to listen to the community - giving the chance for reddit to surplant it.

    Hey, deja vu?
