    It's not so much a protest from the reddit management as that the subreddit was just lousy from a support standpoint.  Reddit search is a well documented disaster, so it ends up in this cycle of answering the same half dozen questions over and over again.  Plus, there's no good separation of areas.  Troubleshooting mixed with dev work mixed with miscellaneous discussions, it all ended up in one big pile that had to be sorted through.  Flair kinda worked for this, if you squint and tilt your head a bit, but not particularly well.  The forum is a lot more convenient in that regard.

    The other side of the coin is manpower.  There's only so many people on the team, and splitting our attention between the forum and reddit means neither gets the attention it deserves.  And a decent portion of the team have deleted their reddit accounts.

    The subreddit still exists, all the historical knowledge is still there, but for the foreseeable future it's just a place for us to make announcements rather than a place for users to post.
