no, there's a concept in reddit called a "personal subreddit". You know how you can click a user and it will show you the most recent comments? e.g. /u/chankstein38 would be your comment history.

Well, in 2017/8 or something, You can choose to convert this into your own subreddit. Complete with followers, votes, and user comments on "your sub". Never understood the idea given reddit's semi-anonymous nature, but I guess OnlyFans models benefited a lot from it.

This sub is literally the user's sub.

I think we're talking about a distinction in a different spot. My distinction was that rather than "They're shutting down personal subreddits" this post was more "Reddit is even coming for mods who blackout their personal subreddits"

I do understand that they are talking about their own personal subreddits. I appreciate the clarification though!
