To be honest, I don't really care about the policies or actions that anyone really took. What pushed me to leave was the change in community.

It seems like if you weren't mad about something, you didn't fit in. Either you hated the evil SJWs or the crazy Menninists, the mods or the admins, or Comcast or Time Warner. It just got to the point that there wasn't anything on the front page that was subliminally pushing some agenda. Everyone was always up in arms about something, no matter the importance or relevance. It went from a site with some cool stuff and some discussion to a political battle arena.

This place is like walking into a nice coffee shop after a demolition derby; no yelling, no blaring music, no revving engines - just a peaceful calmness.
