Hey there! Lots of fair questions. Long story short it was closed because Reddit sucks. That’s kinda most of it! It started with us being fed up with Reddit removing API access for our bots, and then their AWFUL response to any conversations. We were then threatened and we decided it would be best to move here. I made the subreddit, along with r/wilburmusic, waaaayyy back with some friends. It was never official to begin with although I did get the go-ahead from Wilbur to make it ‘official’ per se, and we are sootmods, some of us are also discord mods/twitch mods. Wilbur wasn’t invited as a mod because tbh he’s never asked and I keep forgetting to mention it.

For me, this was always a personal page/project we ran with friends and I’ve decided to move that at least partially off reddit. Wilbur wasn’t bothered and none of the admins were bothered, it was just the natural progression of things.

We have both now, and I’ve handed over most of the reddit moderation to others.

:)

It’s going to take a while for it to kick off again, but hey personally Im staying here now!

We closed it in solidarity with the many other communities being hit by reddits new API ToS… It’s been reopened now, with this being the new alternative for those who have had enough : )
