r/ultralight was a relatively niche community until it hit an inflection point in summer 2020 when COVID caused a deluge of new subscribers who subsequently complained about over moderation. The mods backed down and the sub became less focused and more generalized. In June 2023 the mods shut the sub down as part of wider protests over Reddit enshittification related to an IPO.

Hoping !ultralight can recapture that early community spirit.
