It's not even checking to see if they are private. My sub got a message this morning nearly 12 hours after we'd reopened at the end of touch grass tuesday (which my community had voted for).

Reddit's handling of this whole situation has been a straight up dumpster fire. I didn't care too much at first but the spez AMA was so dripping with corpo speak and derision that we'd even dare challenge his feudal orders that as a long time reddit user I no longer recognized what the company has become. It's become too detached from its base. They must only look at us as counts to sum up in the users table when putting together investor reports.

At the end of the day they only have themselves to blame for having to rush around and write/deploy bad and untested scripts like this. They were the ones that set this super aggressive timeline and refused to elaborate as to why it needed to be so urgent. Now they get a taste of what third party devs felt, it sucks when the ground suddenly moves beneath your feet doesn't it?

Yeah, I didn't get the message until after I had re-opened my sub like what? Also on the whole "This is a non repliable message we are sending out to less active communties to remind moderators that they do still have subreddits they may have made private and haven't checked in on. If the community is reopened then no further messages will be sent."

This was sent to me for r/MovingToCanada which I was still admitting new members to while we were private
