@MicroWave I don't know about bots but I think Kbin has a little over 41K users right now: https://kbin.social/nodeinfo/2.0

These admins are such assholes, they can't even maintain a clear narrative about what they're doing and why. They tell the mods they have to reopen their subreddits because that's what the users want, and of course Reddit administration is looking out for the users! And then when those same mods do a poll of what their users actually want and they get malicious compliance like John Oliver pictures or NSFW content, suddenly that's a violation of the rules. I thought mods were supposed to serve their communities and respond to their desires, as reflected in the polling?
There isn't even a figleaf anymore, they might as well just say "this is bad for the IPO so we're going to screw you over however we feel like any given moment."
@Kombat Yes, it's nice to see the funny rules some subs are coming up with, including all the John Oliver stuff, but I'd like to see more of them just get rid of their rules and allow porn or whatever people want to post. I think that would be much more economically damaging to the company, especially after the mainstream media starts describing Reddit as a porn site.
@itmightbethew These are all great but /r/interestingasfuck seems to have hit on something that could have a real impact: Reddit apparently can't sell advertising on NSFW subs. Imagine if /r/pics and /r/aww and other tip subs just opened themselves up to whatever, it would down Reddit in porn and destroy the site's reputation. I'm sure the admins would try to force them back to SFW, but it could be a powerful tactic.
I would drape myself in velvet, if it was socially acceptable @ElectroVagrant
