"Welcome Back - An Update & Clarification"

#PokemonGO: Hi trainers,As you were probably aware, we took the decision to make the sub private over the last 24 hours. Along with many other subreddits we were protesting against the hiring of Aimee Challenor to the Reddit staff admin team and their handling of a scenario where a moderator posted a topical link to a news article mentioning this person in r/UKPolitics and then being banned by Reddit's algorithms they had set in place to protect said admin from abuse. Since then, the movement gained massive traction across Reddit and also in mainstream media with articles in Metro and The Verge amongst others.This evening Reddit issued a statement and update on the situation here The moderators here at r/PokemonGo felt this is adequate grounds to reopen the subreddit to all users. We apologise again for the downtime but thank you all so much for your understanding and messages of support that we received throughout this blackout. Please remember to follow all rules when posting content again onto the subreddit and we're looking forward to having you all back again. Lets get out there trainers! via /r/pokemongo https://ift.tt/3rhMMiD
