If there is one last glorious memory I’ll take away from reddit, I can live with it being this one.
Am I allowed to go back to reddit and post AI generated of sexy John Oliver?
I’m torn, on one hand this is hilarious and if they didn’t do this the admins would just change the moderators to someone who would run it. On the other hand, Reddit got what it wanted: the sub has reopened, posts are flowing, ads are being served and Reddit is making money.
i honestly doubt that the traffic R/pics had before this change will stay.
this is the best way honestly even better than restricted it will effectively hurt the traffic while they ( officially ) cant be dicks i mean they still can but you know.
Reddit could put a bot that just cycles through reposts from the last 15 years in the top 50 subs and the front page (and just bot-paste articles on all the news and politics subs) and the FP would be indistinguishable to the average r/all lurker.
There’s already a shitload of bots just copy-pasting comments and reposting old generic pics. I’ve noticed a huge increase of those over the past few months.
All subs should do something like this…Reddit want the mods back or they get removed. So bring the subs back but change the sub rules to be insane shit like this. Comply to Reddit’s rules but with your own rules.
I imagine they’ll still get pulled as mods, but at least it’ll be good for a laugh rather than a groan.
Small example, one niche sub I loved was r/retroAR. It’s where people share old AR15s or clones of old AR15s. They had pretty strict definition of what considered “retro”, a fixed carry handle being a main part if it. In protest they are allowing non-carry handle posts and there was some wacky builds being posted.
