Reddit is whatever you want it to be.Reddit is basically Craigslist of dialogue. It's a good way to be loud, without any checks and balance for accuracy. It's entertaining to read, but nobody really takes it seriously. Like Craigslist, LOL
Of course Apple removed the negative reviews. They know how ugly it is too but just don't want to be reminded that often.
Here's a list of some people that have done AMAs on reddit:
Barack Obama, President of the United States -- AMA
Gordon Ramsay. AMA.
Apple Co-founder Steve Wozniak, Ask Me Anything!
actor Patrick Stewart of Yorkshire, X-Men, Star Trek and Blunt Talk. AMA!
Bill Gates, co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. AMA
Elon Musk, CEO/CTO of a rocket company, AMA!
Senator Bernie Sanders, Democratic candidate for President of the United States — AMA
Neil deGrasse Tyson -- AMA
the investigative journalists who worked on the Panama Papers AMA!
I am Buzz Aldrin, engineer, American astronaut, and the second person to walk on the moon during the Apollo 11 moon landing. AMA!
I am Astronaut Scott Kelly, currently spending a year in space. AMA!
got tired of copy/pasting...
Hold shift+option then hit the volume keys and it will move in 1/4 increments to help with this.

Offtopic: what is the sample image on the monitor showing? Some chemical disaster? Algae?
Salt water evaporation ponds. Sea water is allowed into the ponds where it then evaporates, leaving behind salt. Eventually, the salt is dug up, cleaned, and sold to you in the grocery store.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I think the LG is awesome and a worthy replacement for the Thunderbolt Display which incidentally was LG under the skin.Of course Apple removed the negative reviews. They know how ugly it is too but just don't want to be reminded that often.
I'm sure you trust greater newsworthy sites such as Yahoo News, CNN, MSN and Fox News...those users that comment on stories are probably the smartest people on the planet..."Because Apple didn't delete the reviews, the premise behind the original reddit post is flawed."
Reddit is garbage. I wouldn't trust the junk on that site for anything.
Unfortunately this is the product Apple pushed as the replacement to the dead Cinema Display line(close collaboration between the 2 companies). I could understand why they would want to censor reviews. I have never had this problem with anything I've bought from Apple so I'm just going to chalk it up to a bug.I will give Apple credit on this one, could just have been a website glitch. Not sure why people would think Apple would be so protective of some other company's reputation, Apple really has nothing invested in selling a 3rd party product so if LG screwed up then they screwed up.
Had it been a brand new Apple Cinema Display product that was full of flaws then I could see Apple Trumping the facts about it.

I'd actually like to see a 24" 16:10 Retina iMac. 24" is my favorite monitor size from both a usage standpoint and as a great value.Bring a brand new Apple Thunderbolt Display 24-inch with Thunderbolt 3 (40 Gbps) and USB 3.1 Type-C (reversible) Generation 2 (10 Gbps) ports.
Your post is short sighted and ignorance is becoming of you that you fail to understand what else that occurs on that site besides Buzz Aldrin and Obama links.
Since you got tired of copying and pasting Stevie, allow me to also contribute that Reddit also has uncensored-unsupervised links that contain explicit and harmful material posted on a daily basis that goes without moderation, let alone anyone can post malicious links that have NO relevancy to the actual topic. Diatribes occur, but the garbage posted on that site is terrible. It's comparable to Craigslist. But I wouldn't expect you to have an understanding of the forum rules, which hasn't proven anything other than you posting a "Few links."

WHAT!?!?!?!?!Are you telling me that there was this option and I have never known about it for 9 years?
Reddit is whatever you want it to be.
I said I doubt Apple did but I could understand why, if Apple had. Thanks for the link but I had already come to the conclusion they didn't censor any reviews.That never happened. Read this article.
I wouldn't buy it if I were you then.This is the most uninspiring and generic looking monitor ever.
Ugly as sin.
The sheer ugliness of that display speaks louder than words. Johnny Ive probably removes those negative reviews himself each time he cringes over the foolishness of Apple having allow a partner like LG to have released that design-abomination. And to those of you who think this display actually looks nice, to what are you comparing? To Apple products? Hah! This is not an Apple-designed product and it shows, despite how much "influence" Apple had in its feature set. You would think that will all the emphasize Apple puts on form over function that they never would have put their stamp of approval on something that looks this bad. Matte borders and glossy screen... Top bezel disproportionately larger than bezels on other sides... And that stand... The high-quality LCD matters little when the overall design looks this bad.You seem fairly confident you know Apple intentionally removed the reviews. Can you provide evidence how you know this?
