A photo I took at Gardens by the Bay (Singapore) - [they're also the subs banner image]
Photo / InspoSingaporean here, I find it funny that y'all keep on saying Singapore is not solarpunk, but your banner is still Singapore's Gardens By The Bay lol
The users and the mods are not in solidarity on this. Many posts have criticized this decision repeatedly and received support in the comments but Reddit is not a democracy by a long shot. Mods have a great deal of control in how a subreddit community functions and that is part of the compromise that makes Reddit so weak. Reddit's greedy business model that depends upon but refuses to pay for moderation encourages this sort of thing. It's the same issue you see in countries where police are allowed to operate on bribes and shake-downs. The wrong people are motivated to do the wrong things.
Images of Singapore are a perfect icon for /r/greenwashedfascism. But here we are. . .
The nature of Reddit is one of the major reasons I also have an account on slrpnk, though admittedly even with the nature of ActivityPup for the greater Fediverse, there is less posting there sometimes.
I admit though, I do prefer it though because there is less toxicity and gatekeeping being observed on the Fediverse than I see here.
