Until the day you write an extensive answer to a question, which is not released, and upon requesting an explanation why, you get a really weird response with criticism that doesn’t actually make sense, only to then find that the mod who responds to you (and who did not have any expertise at all on that topic) just took your comment, rewrote it, and posted it himself.
I’m gonna need some receipts for that one, mostly because as an end user the content quality on that sub is head and shoulders better than anywhere else on Reddit
Also, like, that kinda weird shit is going to happen occasionally anywhere there are power heiarchies. It sucks when it happens to you, but it’s unavoidable when a group of humans is given a set of rules to enforce.
AskHistorians may be my favorite corner of the Internet ever. What a great sub and mod team.
