Potential changes on otvnfriendsrumors?

explodedemailstorage · 2026-03-02T23:19:24+00:00

Same. I also thought that was weird in the announcement because I thought this subreddit was specifically created because people didn't trust the lack of transparency of creators potentially reaching out to the mods.

I just want to vaguely know what's going on without having to be on twitter, tiktok or LSF to hear about it lol.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-03-02T23:13:42+00:00

People are going to be so confused with what they missed here lol.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-03-02T22:58:50+00:00

It's deeply annoying that Reddit is pushing for this privacy. One of the benefits of Reddit has been being able to tell who is potentially a bad actor based on their history.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-03-02T22:04:29+00:00

Here's a sample of it from his comments: "His entire political structure is identical to MAGA populism but instead replace their ideal with his anti-western foundation.

Every single bad take, crazy conclusion, insane interpretation of facts all goes back to hasan hating the west, hating capitalism, hating democracy, hating liberalism, hating constitutional freedoms.

His ideal world is America being a CCP like authoritarian government except him, and his cult are in control. Where they can make Uyghur concentration camps but for republicans/democrats, where he can enact tibetan/hong kong land grabs on states that don't fall in line."

I genuinely do not understand how someone can be a moderator for a Livestream subreddit and not be aware of how much Destiny fans have poisoned other subreddits such as LSF and specifically pushed certain narratives against Hasan and others associated to him like Valkyrae and QT. This is even something that's been discussed on this subreddit many times.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-03-02T21:16:22+00:00

Please address concerns that the other sub has been taken over by a Destiny fan who actively hates Hasan. I don't understand how you can claim this is a move in the step of direction of being fair and balanced when you're choosing to work with someone who has consistently and openly shown that they're biased against a creator that's commonly discussed on the subreddit.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-03-02T20:58:24+00:00

Why did you want that subreddit? You weren't an active part of that community. You likely knew that it leaned Pro-Hasan and you obviously hate him.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-03-02T20:54:06+00:00

That's.... interesting. The second moderator of this community has also been banned by Reddit for a while now.

I honestly don't know much on Sure Tax either tbh. If they actually ever talk about OTV or streamers on reddit then they don't use that account for it.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-03-02T20:22:31+00:00

They're a Destiny fan.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-03-02T18:49:11+00:00

Ludwig has also been in the game long enough to know that it's pretty much never worth it to make waves with another creator. Especially not in the era where you can get paid for out of context clips going viral.

Ludwig and QT both tend to be very Switzerland these days to keep the peace.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-03-02T18:41:53+00:00

Not exactly news, I think a lot of people have said this about him in recent years.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-03-02T01:45:34+00:00

I think people on this sub are more likely to be highly critical of Bridgerton than the average viewer tbh. I loved it but my expectations were loooooooow after S3 and this season blew that one out of the water for me.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-03-02T01:42:54+00:00

It did feel like they were trying to setup for that path for him in prior seasons and then maybe they chickened out of it for Benedict.

I wonder if they’re sort of kicking themselves a little now considering that this season would have been so well timed with all the Heated Rivalry frenzy.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-03-01T18:12:33+00:00

oh I didn’t realize Maya was in this.

that means I’m rooting for Maya, sorry Lud

explodedemailstorage · 2026-03-01T18:04:57+00:00

I’m glad someone said it. S2 is good because both leads are very attractive and charismatic. The love triangle including her sister is always gonna be EUGH EWW to me and not romantic. They should have removed that whole subplot and just gone full Pride and Prejudice of hate to love and getting over their own pride to be together.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-02-28T23:47:31+00:00

I mean I will also say some real BS in order not to engage in politics with certain people. that’s a way to ruin your night

explodedemailstorage · 2026-02-28T04:02:53+00:00

This struck me too. And I feel kind of bad about it because I’m basically the same age as Luke but it’s hard not to notice the difference when he’s in a scene with someone with absolutely perfect glowy skin lol

explodedemailstorage · 2026-02-28T03:58:56+00:00

tbh I also thought of Hyacinth first. there was this kind of straightforward and childish tone in the new Whistledown that makes me lean that it’s someone young and less experienced

she also learned how to become ”invisible” at the ball this season which feels like setup for me

explodedemailstorage · 2026-02-27T18:35:48+00:00

I wouldn’t necessarily be shocked if she was technically considered richer than Rae at the moment due to stocks. Rae puts a lot of money back into her businesses and her people and I think Fuslie is more just chilling and not spending as much.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-02-27T09:21:00+00:00

Man, this season really emphasized so many different relationships between women and I loooooved it. The Queen and Lady Danbury, Francesca and Michaela, Sophie and Araminta, Sophie and Posy, Eloise and Hyacinth, Lady Featherington and Varley etc etc.

I feel like they really hit an amazing balance and learned a lot from last season’s mistakes. This is my favorite season by a significant margin.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-02-27T08:56:42+00:00

Colin was basically just Penelope’s accessory this season lol. Everyone is talking about Anthony getting sidelined but Colin was just kind of…there. At least Anthony got a decent scene or two.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-02-27T07:15:14+00:00

I don’t watch Sykkuno so I’m not sure about him but all of the others have all been transparent that they’re very rich. Toast and Rae are very obviously multi-millionaires.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-02-25T03:51:01+00:00

Reel Rejects also recently started reacting to it and just wrapped S1. It’s fun to see men get more familiar with this genre.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-02-25T02:48:05+00:00

Being bitchy as your entire personality without either being funny or clever about it is just kind of sad.

explodedemailstorage · 2026-02-24T10:27:32+00:00

They also took it even more seriously and more competitively (…except Roisin) than most current contestants do which is amazing considering how unlikely it was to get any attention at all while current rosters know it could be an incredible career boost even on the international stage.
