We're not intentionally sabotaging the subreddit to protest the change or "ruin" it. We're just not going to put in the extra work anymore.

Regular people with interesting jobs still do great AMAs all the time! Unfortunately the reddit algorithm doesn't do a great job of surfacing them to frontpages anymore, but if you scroll through the subreddit you should still be able to see some good ones.

No, we still ask that people follow our rules about what topics are allowed. As moderators, we won't be checking proof closely on every post ourselves like we used to, but if users report something as rule-breaking we'll still take it down.

Some quick notes from our friends at TruePic:

General Anonymity Tips While Using Truepic: 

If users would like to increase their Truepic anonymity beyond current traditional social media standards, follow these four simple steps:

1- Sign up for Truepic app with generic or dummy email address. Truepic does not verify the user; it only verifies the image captured.

2- Don’t use your real name as a username, unless you want your photos to be watermarked with your name.

3- Only capture images/videos in public places (avoid capturing images at your residence, business etc..).

4- Use VPN to add an extra layer of encryption to your data.

The tips above are merely suggestions for improving anonymity while using the Truepic app and are in no way a comprehensive guide to internet anonymity/privacy.  Every user should evaluate his or her own situation and take those measures they deem necessary for their privacy and safety.

Note: It is important to note that Truepic does NOT sell, share, or monetize use data in any way.

Victoria did a lot of it, and more recently they had another staff member who helped out a ton with AMAs. Unfortunately they were in the latest round of layoffs a few weeks ago.
