We're not actually that small, we have about 90k subscribers. But we're still small fry compared to many that are closed.
In the spirit of malicious compliance, if anyone has any suggestions for what /r/Commandline could become, I'd be delighted to hear them!
Make it all quotes from the drill instructor from Full Metal Jacket.

Guess I'll hit the showers.
I somehow managed to read this in the voice of John Oliver
That's it, command line needs to become ASCII images of John Oliver
Make it a NSFW sub to mess with their advertising. Something like only allowing pictures of dominatrix culture with the titles being dominatrix-style commands.
Yep, nsfw means no ads.
Also set it so a mod has to approve every post before it shows.
That way the sub is technically up and they can't take it or make money off it.
Only pics of people going commando with visible tan lines
Jesus ... lol ... that's hilirious ... but also they said activity to make the site less attractive, not more attractive
Perhaps only allow users to post titles and comments that are a command and a line? Like this: ⌘–
EDIT: and have that be the only moderation restriction going forward besides things that would get the subreddit removed. The more relevant the post is to the literal words "command" and "line" and the unicode symbols I posted, the better.
EDIT: correction, I posted an endash. Something like a box drawing line would be better, i.e. ⌘─

Turn it into an NSFW subreddit, as others are doing, because then Reddit can't run ads on the subreddit.
Also, their whole spiel about subreddits being for users, who you are letting down, is obviously a crock of shit. They care about one thing only - money. They care about being able to continue financing their BMWs, because God forbid they have to ride the bus.
Each post must be precisely the word "comm".
Each comment must be precisely the word "line".
Comm and line.
This is an attempt to force the sub open and retain your free moderating services.
well, yes and no. It's an attempt to force the sub open and give the "option" to no longer moderate. They're perfectly willing to part ways with you as a moderator as long as it gets the sub open. Their view is that everyone is replaceable.
Apparently that’s what Huffman learned from Musk
They appear to be picking subreddits that would be high on search results. I can see how command line would fit.
If you have a way to find out what posts are returned most often through search engines you can remove them.
change community rules to apply retroactively that in order to maintain freshness and improve visibility of smaller posts, anything over x days old or over x karma will be removed.
"Welcome to Com Man D Line. I'm your man on coms, what can I tell you about the D today?"
All posts could require l33t speak. Go full in on the "I'm a early 2000s hacker because I can ping Google" vibe.
reminds me of /(thatothersite)/itsaunixsystem
I just received the same notice for my "largest" subreddit with 1.3k subs. But not my 500 or so sub ones. It's been a fairly deadish sub for 2 years so I was surprised to get a notice.
Must be a mass mailing, maybe minimum traffic or sub count filter?
Fuck em. Might just nuke it and delete all posts.
They’ll just restore it if you nuke it. Better to make the sub NSFW so they can’t make ad revenue off of it and set it so that all posts must be mod-approved, then only approve like one post every month so you can show as still being active.
I really don't care enough. I admin a lemmy instance now. As soon as Apollo stops working I don't plan on logging in again.
I've heard they're restoring users that nuke their own posts, but I'm not sure I've heard anyone nuking a whole sub before. Mine is small enough to fly under a radar maybe?
There is a high demand for scripts involving the package PRAW.
"All posts must be self-posts formatted as code and must only be *nix/Mac/Windows command line input.
No link posts allowed.
All comments must be formatted as code and must only be *nix/Mac/Windowsal command line output. "
Open the sub but only allow ChatGPT prompts
Posts must be images which are exactly 1 pixel wide. Post titles must all be the word "command". No text allowed under the images.
Allow NSFW content as well, that way reddit gets no money from you regardless as you have to flag it as a NSFW subreddit which means no ads.
Where can I find you federated?
Title: a command
Body: Output result of that command
Every line that anyone speaks has to be proceeded with proper syntax ECHO speak or removed. Responses should always be whatever they said, followed by C:\
"ECHO What command should I use to generate this?"
What command should I use to generate this?
C:\>
If they try to type anything other than echo, just say the command is not valid or not found
Lines from Command & Conquer the game of course.
