That thread is filled with such ignorance and hatred toward the mods there. It's embarrassing.

Agreed
I'm not sure why people are complaining about not having access to resources when most of it was linked to other sites like Gitlab, HuggingFace, etc. I've probably only found 2 posts that were useful over the past couple of months.

I've deleted my accounts and I can't be bothered creating another account just to vote.

Unfortunately most people are ignorant and will only browse a few big sites never leaving the sphere. Reddit isn't even a good way to catalog and search to begin with, but I'd bet many don't know much else. Even with the blackouts slowly ending, I really do think this is an exodus of many power users and contributors. Quite different from older drama on the site.
