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.

Remaining mods should just do what r/pics has done. Change the subreddit's topic to posting sexy pictures of John Oliver.

The subreddit is open so you complied. Reddit didn't dictate that you keep or change any rules so changing the subreddit rules so that only posts about sexy John Oliver pictures are allowed would have the same effect as the blackout.

How about posting pictures of Lemmy from motorhead as a pirate?

On topic for piracy and a link to the new home for the community.

what do you think the banner image is ;)

Yeah! As long as it 1. Technically complies with the re-open demand and 2. Doesn't allow the subreddit to be used. Then it is logically the same as a blackout until Reddit makes its next strongarm move.
