Why should the reddit administration interfere with communities ran by third parties?

IRC networks are still running just fine with minimal intervention.

Or for that matter newsgroups. I guess since newsgroups are subscribed by the carrier, IRC might still be the better example.

On IRC plenty of people who cry about getting a ban or K-line are ridiculed and told to go elsewhere. There is drama there as well, but it's a smaller and less exposed thing.

IRC is mostly drama, but for whatever reason nobody thinks it's a big deal. (Compared to reddit.)
