Reddit does greedy API change
A ton of subreddits decide to do protests
r/196 moderator’s do poll to determine the length of their protest
Only 2 options are “2 days” and Forever
Poll gets flooded by bigots wanting to shut the sub down forever
Mods look at poll and decide to kill the sub
They make off-site migration post which split’s the sub into several smaller community’s
There are ~600 comments on the post begging the mods this is a horrible idea and not to kill the sub
Mod “addresses” the controversy without actually addressing or responding to it
Comments are auto-removed so nobody can respond to them
mfw destroying the most successful non-bigoted meme sub does more harm to gay people then reddit
Thanks for the pride month gift, 196 mods!
this is why downvotes should be enabled
Ah yes, so reddits bots can shut down the protest by claiming “users” are downvoting the protest…
reddit totally doens’t have a bot problem, you know? and reddit admins would never use fake accounts! /s
