if you want to post links or discuss Reddit over the next while, please localize it to this thread in order to keep things tidy, thanks! (a more formal body may be forthcoming, but that’ll come in the morning if so)

    I can’t help but love when subreddits do this in response to the threat of removing mods if they stay private. I remember there were some that were posting “sexy” pics of John Oliver. iPhone was limited to posting “sexy” pics of Tim Cook. Working with what they have in order to continue their protests. I like it😁

    It has malicious compliance written all over it 🙃

      It forces Reddit’s hand even more IMO; if you start forcing a sub to stay on a certain topic by admin order (and not by mod’s / community “owner” choice), it really sets a weird tone for the community

        If admins want to force certain subs to stay on certain topics, they can moderate them by their own f#ckin’ selves.
