Is this new r/ExposeIngress subreddit official lore or just fanfic?
Just noticed this pop up and from the name of the community owner it just looks like fanfic but so much wild stuff so fast seems like this content was ready to go right when all this community stuff was launched.
I thought Niantic stopped doing the hidden lore stuff and was all direct and up front with the story now.

There are many of us in investigations that have a lot of content ready to be added to the forums plus there was a bit of a lore drop on reddit this morning to add to it. Most of the storyline is public and upfront but there is always stuff happening in the background with deeper meanings and connections. Dunraven is a good way to get a quick look of what's been happening.
Also, the line of "what's official and what isn't" quite often isn't clear. Some unofficial projects or theories are latere adapted by Niantic or given the stamp of approval.
Additionally, quite a few official "intel drops" are made in a way that seems unofficial - as if to further point to "the world around you is not what it seems".
In the end, does it really matter what's official and what isn't?
"In the end, does it really matter what's official and what isn't?" In some aspects, I would say canon vs noncanon is a valid discussion. Although I am sure it would be tossed out now as being an alternate universe. Of course that all really goes to Dr. Wright's Gravity of narrative Theory - which I will post a link for once the forum lets me post links 😋
The official subreddit is r/InvestigateIngress and the Essex discussion subreddit is r/OperationEssex, and no, the "hidden lore stuff" has not stopped at all! I don't know what r/ExposeIngress is supposed to be, it doesn't look like a solid foundation for discussion, more like a guy who found Ingress typing in some words like mind control and adding it to his Conspiracy Theory.
