A fellow mod informed me that about it as I was laying in bed. Reddit sent a message to the mod team and after 1 hour demoded me. I didn’t even had time to see it, never-mind respond to it.
Looks like we rattled reddit enough to start shooting. There goes all that fancy talk about our protest not affecting them much.
Just FYI for now. It’s late here so I’ll see how we proceed tomorrow.
Question for us refugees is: do we care enough to fill up these scab Reddit subs with spam and shit, or just let it be?
I’m partial to the idea kf creating chaos, but at the end I don’t think I can give a shit. It’s just another corporate social network now.
I do hope tho that mods of the closed subs nuke all the content (e.g. mark as cp/spam/something) before they get fired.
Reddit has been undeleting posts and comments, so that’s probably not going to work.
Sure but if everything is marked as cp/spam, then they’ll need to be careful with undeleting. Especially if at the same time, people post exactly the kind of prohibited material.
I’m all for civil disobedience, but there’s a fine line between refusing to comply and intentionally doing harm. Reopening a sub and only allowing posts of something silly? That’s chill, Reopening a sub and intentionally posting illegal and disturbing content? Just ask yourself, how would an impartial jury evaluate your actions, and go from there.
