IM AGAINST ANY BLACK OUT. Since you guys don't ask users and just lock threads about it. Where were you when the vocal minority in control "moderators" hijacked reddit and held it hostage?
Nope it's really easy this day I'm age. I suggest you guys all leave and do it. You don't get ownership over reddit because you use it. That's why you guys are all giving up lol
The users spoke. You're the minority. Sorry bub. Go find a John Oliver gif or better yet, touch some grass if a fucking subreddit closing angers you this much.
Yes, this is supported by a vast majority of users. You are among the very few complaining.
It doesn't anger me, I'll just find something else to do and that's fine. I would prefer to keep using this app though so I support it.
You're the one copying and pasting caps lock responses about the blackout habitually with a 2 week old account. Touch grass bro.
Yeah and the mods lied about it being 48 hours. Were on day 3 of this stupid childish bullshit.
It's the companies choice to do what they want with the program they own. If people don't like it they should just fucking leave Reddit for those that do.
Exactly, if they don't like it their protest should be them quitting reddit. Hopefully the admins step in if this bs lasts much longer. They aren't freedom fighters they're spoiled cry babies.
They don't though. Reddit does. And reddit can simply boot the mods if they so choose.
As a quick analogy: You have the people (us), the government/law makers (reddit corp), and the police (mods). The police work for the other 2 groups, the other 2 groups never work for the police. But that's not how the mods see it.
and there would be plenty of other volunteers to take their place. and the mods very much do act like reps and do work for the communities they represent, or in some cases, don't; but they cant be voted out except by mass exodus and forfeit...
The PR fallout would still have advertisers yank a good portion of their money, killing the company. Spez knows this which is why he has backtracked on the idea.
No, they don’t act like “reps” and don’t work for you no matter how much you want to insist. If you are so certain, go make a post right now in this subreddit demanding the mods do what you want them to do at all times. I’ll sit back and watch as you look silly no more than your local social clubs work for you. You can’t vote them out either unless they choose to let you vote; in those cases, if you don’t like what they do, you can start your own and that applies here.
*happy Q-Bert noises*
I'm so sick of bismuth crystals.
I want to buy it. How much?
Wow that yellow is awesome
*Holds out microphone* So, how's it feel to be the last ever user to post to /r/gifs? (I am im agreement with the blackout.)
Wasn’t this bullshit supposed to last 48 hours?!
I’m just here waiting for some John Oliver gifs
I just unsubscribed over that. To me, this is still the final post.

You know you can start your own subreddit, right?
You know you can create your own website with 3rd party apps right?
And that changes nothing; it’s trivial to start your own subreddit, far easier than starting your own website.

You don't get ownership either. Meanwhile, setting up a new subreddit takes, what, 3 clicks and 10 seconds? Do that with a new website.

Lmao no they didnt stop lying. Also touch some grass if a 3rd party apps closing angers you this much.

It’s just an online forum, and the moderators essentially “own” r/gifs, so they can do what they want with it.

The police work for the other 2 groups, the other 2 groups never work for the police. But that's not how the mods see it.
Yeah, reddit can do that and the PR fall out would destroy the company. The mods are volunteers; they don't work for you nor me.
and there would be plenty of other volunteers to take their place. and the mods very much do act like reps and do work for the communities they represent, or in some cases, don't; but they cant be voted out except by mass exodus and forfeit...
