The only place I don't see frontpage news about what's happening with Reddit is on Reddit. (kbin.social)

I assume someone's deleting critical news articles there, or having bot armies downvote them. On Kbin and Lemmy and Squabbles, even on Google News, I see Reddit's woes front and center.

This is why centralized communications platforms are an issue. He who control's the communication channels controls what people see and hear, and what they know.

It's why the Fox network, and later Fox News was started. It's why Bezos bought the WaPo. It's why no mainstream news site will challenge corporate ownership of the media.
