Following in the footsteps of r/pics and r/gifs, r/aww is also holding a poll to decide whether to go back to “normal” or to only feature images of John Oliver, Chiijohn, or their lookalikes being adorable.
Poll is here: https://www.reddit.com/r/aww/comments/14bt0c1
This is the right kind of protest to avoid getting nuked. Make subreddits active but useless. It’s not against the rules or r/PotatoSalad and r/Trees would be banned.
What’s chef’s kiss perfect about these is that they’re all using Spez’s words against him. There’s no doubt whose fault this is.
I’m still genuinely shocked that he decided to call people who are offering their time to the site, for free, to moderate it landed fucking gentry. How utterly out of touch, and frankly dumb, can you possibly be? Other social media sites pay millions a year to moderate content and Reddit gets it for free, and this is how he treats them. It’s insane. The guy’s an imbecile.
I hope r/WorldNews starts posting exclusively Onion articles. And r/Anime_Titties… well…
Except if r/worldnews posted Onion articles, all they’ll be doing is predicting the future.
r/nottheonion is leaking again!
If both /r/trees and /r/marijuanaenthusiasts protest though it sort of defeats the purpose.
