/r/LegalAdviceUK is forced back open, vows to move the entire community off Reddit (www.reddit.com)

As with many other subreddits, /r/LegalAdviceUK (which had been dark since the start of the blackout) has been sent a thinly-veiled threat by Reddit.

So they've reopened in order to start moving the entire community of 810,000 subscribers to somewhere else.

As you can imagine there are a number of legal professionals who moderate that sub, and they really don't take kindly to being threatened. They sign off their reopening message with "Fuck /u/Spez and long live John Oliver." but for the real fun you might want to look up a very famous British legal case they reference, Arkell v Pressdram 1971.

Moderating on discord seems quite difficult

[–] MadcapRecap@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Interacting with Discord when there are 1000s of people is really difficult. I’ve moved to the r/formula1 discord but I actively hate using it, as while threading is technically possible it’s never used. The posts+comments approach is so much more manageable.
