So… are you not allowed to have private subreddits any more? Is this their official stance?

It wasn't private before, it was made private in protest. I think they are just automatically messaging mods of subreddits that were public before the protests and are now private.

My overall take on this is people have a weird relationship with reddit.

Yeah, and most recently we're seeing mostly one side. Reddit needs mods. But mods need Reddit. And both need users. Take any one of those three things away and the whole thing doesn't really work.
