Except that a majority of users now complain that the fact remains Reddit is no longer fast enough to keep up with breaking news. This isn't opinion. It's a fucking FACT. I've noticed it, others have noticed it. Amazingly enough, it was SO WELL NOTICED THAT WE UPVOTED IT TO THE FRONT FUCKING PAGE.

So I would suggest your judgement that the post was "loaded" and "had no ability to stand on it's own merit" is very god damn dubious at best.

If Reddit is working perfectly fine, then what's the harm in a post suggesting alternatives?

If it isn't working the way the users want it to (hint: this is the case), then how is it a loaded question at all? That's like saying "The pollution in China is harmful to my lungs. Where is another place I can move to where a majority of people speak Chinese and have Chinese cultural values?"

It's not loaded. It's saying "Something is wrong with this site, and I'd like to know where others go to solve this problem."

There's absolutely no harm in asking that, unless there's an agenda against providing alternatives because of money and investors. And if you ask me, if the people who actually give a flying shit about Reddit want to retain people and said investors, maybe they should ask themselves why they feel the need to delete posts instead of having faith in their product and allowing for dissenting discussion.

I think it's horseshit you removed the post.

And I don't think I'm alone.
