    I guess all the power users went away and found somewhere else and after the reversal they didn’t come back for obvious reasons

      People build communities, and that takes time and effort. If you destroy a community with some policy, and then rescind the policy, people do not come back and rebuild the community because they expect it to happen again.

      Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

        Didn’t they ban adult content due to CP being posted there? I remember hearing stuff like that about Tumblr.

        However adult content is still there, just need some creative thinking to access it.

        But the app itself is just horrendous though.
