I really hope this leads to actual change. Subreddits are becoming meaningless to visit and frustrating for normal users, so hopefully they just stop using reddit altogether.
I already seen a bunch of comments like "why are mods doing this, it's hurting my and other users experience" and I'm sitting here like that's kind of the point haha. Reddit relies on all those mods to curate those subs and so now they're gonna to do it in a way to make the experience less appealing for them and for advertisers. Like it sucks but then again you are using a site heavily reliant on volunteers who are near universally upset by the recent changes
I wonder if all this malicious compliance is also gonna screw with all that AI research people were interested in doing, if all the topics have essentially shifted....
Oh. my. god. That is hilarious! Looks like other subreddits are joining in on the shenanigans too hahaha
Great.
not related but cool fran pfp
I thought i was logged onto the wrong account LOL
Same. I never subbed to pornographic subreddits, so when I saw a lady broadcasting her breasts on my front page, I had to do a double take. And then I made this post here xD
It's r/interestingassfuck now
The sub is now /r/InterestANDFuck. I'm sure this is worse for Spez than the John Oliver sub changes, which I also approve of. Everyone knows advertisers love NSFW content being just out there for anybody to stumble upon.
/r/InterestANDFuck
I love how Mods Tell they are "forced" what is reddit gonna Do otherwise? Dont pay them?
Oh wait....
GUYS, IF YOU DON'T STOP, I'M GONNA GET REALLY, REALLY MAD! ;( - spez
