On one hand, Pokemon Go is one of those subreddits that banned anyone who was insufficiently neurotic regarding COVID, so anyone who still has posting rights is going to be more highstrung than most.

On the other hand, she does have a point. Even if you're not a young woman, a game that encourages you to tell others where you'll be wandering off the beaten path while distracted by your smartphone might as well be titled How To Be Mugged in some places.

I remember being downvoted to hell for saying that I CCW when I was out playing on that sub. I eventually unsubbed sometime in 2020. It was a combination of COVID retardation and the mods support for George Floyd/the riots. Not a loss given that /r/TheSilphRoad is by any metric wholly superior to /r/PokemonGo.
