I don't tolerate hate speech, on either side of the fence.

Thank you for calling that out.

I may have misunderstood the intent of the post. sometimes I skim without meaning to.

how did this discussion devolve into Nazis? I'm afraid you're probably part of the problem.

it's important to see that both sides have extremes and to assume that anyone who tips the scale "left" or "right" is somehow more right or more wrong is what keeps us from being able to find common ground. turning the words "conservative" and "liberal" into slurs is equally damaging. we both have ways of lashing out at each other when we are not the enemy. I bet we can agree that extremism is dangerous regardless of which side of the fence it resides on.

left, right. up, down. it's just a way to divide us so we aren't united against the common enemy...

use the PDS fork with the 5 second delay. it'll take forever but it'll get the job done!

I miss IRC if you want the truth.

I got banned from r/softwaregore for editing my comment ... if that counts

I only had 4,000 comments and it ran for about 6 hours for me. It's because the fork adds a 5-second delay between each request and frankly that's the only way you're going to get every message edited. You can try resorting your comments by top controversial etc but I didn't find that to help much.

I have a different perspective because I actually became active on Reddit for a particular lapidary marketplace - not r/gemstones. but I saw r/gemstones go from a sub extolling the science and beauty of gemstones to a marketplace full of shady dealers trying to disguise their hawking of badly cut stones with sketchy origins. posts that often had to be removed by the mods when the OP wouldn't take no for an answer.
