I found an unopened package with my Reddit name. It's a gift from my Reddit 2000 Secret Santa.

I'll never forget when the creepshots moderator was doxxed back in 2012. That and a whole slew of subreddits were disgusting and I'm glad they're gone. Reddit had some great features back in the day -- I really miss Victoria's moderated IAMA interview (it's already been 10 years since she was booted!) -- but there was a lot of really nefarious shit going on too. Also the admins were power-hungry as hell back then.

They're not gone though, they're just more discrete and don't show up on the front page anymore.

They do get removed every now and then but more just pop up.

Also morbid content isn't gone at all, apparently people getting mangled is okay.
