Questions regarding forum subreddit / (reddit.com/r/bitcointalk)

Sorry if this issue has already been discussed, but today I tried to join the forum subreddit but it turned out to be private.

- Why isn't the subreddit public?
- Is / r / bitcointalk related to the forum?  I remember that on one of the Bitcoin-related subreddits, Theymos was the moderator.

The moderators of r/bitcointalk have set this community as private.
Only approved members can view and take part in its discussions.

There's a chance it's either not affiliated with the forum or it's for admin and mods to discuss things like how there are hidden sections of this forum for mods and admins.

The subreddit moderated by theymos is https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/. That's public.

Theymos has been moderating it since 2011. [Ref.]

The description of this subreddit is "The unofficial Butterfly Labs and Theymos fan club" (wasn't butterfly labs a scam? )

I don't see /u/theymos anywhere under the list of active users, so it's probably an unofficial (troll) subreddit: https://subredditstats.com/r/bitcointalk

Thank you, in fact, that's all that interested me. Since I did not know how to view the list of subreddits participants.
