  • Some of the biggest communities like r/pics, r/aww, and r/GIF decided to post John Oliver pictures and GIFs. In a tweet, Oliver approved this move.
  • In the case of r/aww, the community is also allowed to post pictures of Chiijohn.
  • r/iPhone decided to post pictures celebrating “dashing” Tim Cook.
  • r/Shitposting banned posts with the letter k.
  • r/Wellthatsucks is now a subreddit about vacuum cleaners.
  • r/Nofans is now a passive PC cooler subreddit.
  • r/Interestingasfuck removed a lot of all rules apart from asking members to not break site-wide rules.
  • r/Memes is allowing only Medieval / Landed Gentry memes. This is in response to Huffman’s “Landed Gentry” comment about protesting subreddits.
  • r/PokemonGo is now allowing pictures of John Oliver, Pikachu, or Spark.
  • r/Horny is now a “Christian Minecraft server.”
  • r/Steam members are posting about actual steam.
  • r/HarryPotter is now referring to Huffman as Voldemort.
  • Some subreddits such as r/Showerthoughts are determining close days for the community.

Glorious.

One of the legal advice subs -- I can't remember which -- was going forward requiring post approval from mods because they value community safety. But as they are unpaid volunteers they estimate it could take up to 14 days for post approval.

I think that was /r/scams. Their post was fantastic

Oh man. I wouldn't want to anger a bunch of people who make it a hobby to fight scammers in a social psychology arms race.
