That applies to newcomers too. For example, if you want to lock a thread, simply comment “!lock”.
I just locked a complete comment section. Cool.
with great power comes great responsibility 🫡
For some reason, this whole chaos is more true to the Reddit I know than everything has been for the last years.
Blackout
Blocking a community for a protest is irresponsible and undemocratic.
NSFWification
Using a feature that is explicitly baked into the platform is irresponsible and will harm
people who chose to click/tap on NSFW content clearly marked as such, and probably voted for to appear in the subredditchildren.Absolute democracy
You, uh, you have to… er, we uhm, uhhhh
Wow.
What a nightmare this whole thing is turning out to be. I mean, imagine being the CEO right now. You want to seem strong, you don’t want to back down, but every day the chaos seems to get crazier.
Imagine the pressure right now.
And the funny thing is, he deserves every bit of the shitstorm he brewed. He’s traded his shovel for an industrial sized tunnel boring machine to dig Reddit’s grave, as well as his own.
These malicious compliances are too fun, unfortunately, this kind of thing will increase engagement. Funny though, would have been a great April Fools day idea.
Good for them. I hate to see Reddit fail like this but it’s the bed they chose to make.
Beautiful chaos
It’s beautiful. Ask and you shall receive. Fuck spez
wipes tear That’s beautiful.
This one might be the best subreddit retaliation I’ve seen this week
!lock
This is true democracy. Mob rule!
That’s a wonderful solution, I love it.
This is everything. I hope most subreddits follow suit. #LandedGentry
This is chaos, I love chaos!
That’s just beautiful.
I hereby ordain you all as popes as well btw
But what if I want to be a mome?
this is really testing my resolve not to go back to that site.
