Twice your moderators have PM'd me to answer questions about photography raised by users in their subreddits.

Three times they've asked me to cross-post my work to other subreddits.

Yet I refuse to play because this:

    even then, it's still largely subjective in a lot of cases which subreddit a picture "belongs in"... so users submit, they get their image removed, and most likely have a conversation with a mod about it.

Is condescending, insulting and derogatory and I won't stand for it. You aren't judging my ability as a photographer, you're judging my ability to abide by your arbitrary taxonomy. You're judging my ability to cowtow to mad hatters. You're seeing how high I jump when you shout at me because you see shouting at me as your privilege.

Who cares? The moderators in your network that wish I was still submitting. Here's a lake your network will never see:

Not because I don't think it's worthy, but because I don't think your network is.
