Some subreddit are a treasure trove of technical information. It's like if your ex was a renovation specialist and you kept her phone number in case you decide to redo your kitchen. Except the phone number leads to a carbon copy of your ex, so the cheating bitch never gets to find out just how much you miss her. Fuck you Maria, you broke my heart.

I'd tend to trust someone haunted by a rainbow personally, I don't think it's the best plan
I'm the opposite. If someone does it at home, they probably do so regularly while a vacation is once every now and then. I've known a couple of normal people that did it on vacay, it's just another facet of the party for them, letting down their hair etc. The ones I know that do it at home tho...yikes. But it's all kind of gross regardless.
There should simply not be a mute button.
I don't really get how it's relevant. It was supposed to be blanks, he would have to pull the trigger for the movie scene, right? The person that modified and put real bullets in is the culprit regardless imo.
I do not think there's much risk to hosting a forum talking about piracy, even less so when your forum is simply connected to it.
Im personally not a big fan of defederation. It just seems to split the user base, it's extreme like cutting your arm off to avoid some poison ivy. In the end, it reduces the amount of users a post gets too and reduces the number of comments and general engagement. It has its place and I don't think this was it.
It's also annoying to have to create different accounts. I didn't quit Reddit to start using 5 different mini reddits one at a time.
That being said, it's really hard to care about.
We would definitely lose some data but I'm guessing there's a few hundred backups of Wikipedia and the important stuff floating around.
