The site took a sharp turn downhill after that happened.
It seems like the moderators who enjoyed moderating bigger subreddits left the site and all that's left is power trippers who stuck around for the dust to settle so they could seize control and push their agenda.
Municipal/Provincial subreddits are nearly impossible to participate in because of how locked down the replacement mods have made them. The Toronto subreddit is run like a dystopian alternative reality where normal users can't post most news. Stories of crimes being committed is completely banned unless you're an approved poster or it's the cops committing crimes. The mods actively delete posts and then the same story gets re-uploaded by mods or their friends hours later and is allowed to stay up.
