Reddit is forcing mods to reopen subs, as you might know already.
The 2 biggest subs reacted by “invading” r/all with pictures of John Oliver, here’s an article about it: Two of the biggest Reddit communities reopened in the funniest way possible.
It would be really fun if r/wow followed suit with Daddy Denathrius (it’s an option on the poll).
Would be interesting to see what Reddit would do if the larger subs mods just left and they had to insource it all.
Although there will always be bootlickers to play nice I’d imagine so for the vast majority of people this’ll blow over…
Hard to tell, reddit doesn’t have enough manpower to mod everything, that’s sure, but there are indeed bootlickers that would do anything to have a little power.
That’s why I believe we, as users, have also an important part in it, we can support “our” mods, if they are forcibly removed, but spamming the subs to make reddit’s mods life miserable, see how long they last lol.
Even better IMO is just quitting reddit, moving communities elsewhere, all lurkers that don’t care will stay but that’s ok, “we” don’t need them.
Very true - I wiped my accounts comments before the two day blackout begun and won’t be going back. Although maybe for a short spam protest ;)
I’m kind of optimistic about the split away, going back to (for now) smaller communities is a nice change.
I really hoped that one of the poll choices would be to move to community over to lemmy / kbin. Voted keep dark, with Dentahrius being my second choice.
The last two choices are too similar.
I would have loved that too, I hope they’re at least considering the move to somewhere else, tho I can understand it’s not easy with a community that big.
So it seems that the Go dark option won with about 50% of the votes, but the subreddit is staying open?
Really feels like they’re saying “We’ll continue putting up polls until you all agree on what we’ve already agreed”.
Yeah I don’t understand that either :(
