Make it a NSFW sub to mess with their advertising. Something like only allowing pictures of dominatrix culture with the titles being dominatrix-style commands.
Perhaps only allow users to post titles and comments that are a command and a line? Like this: ⌘–
EDIT: and have that be the only moderation restriction going forward besides things that would get the subreddit removed. The more relevant the post is to the literal words “command” and “line” and the unicode symbols I posted, the better.
EDIT: correction, I posted an endash. Something like a box drawing line would be better, i.e. ⌘─
Turn it into an NSFW subreddit, as others are doing, because then Reddit can’t run ads on the subreddit.
Also, their whole spiel about subreddits being for users, who you are letting down, is obviously a crock of shit. They care about one thing only - money. They care about being able to continue financing their BMWs, because God forbid they have to ride the bus.
This is great. Reddit wants to use it’s data to be fed to large language models, though not for free anymore. This poisons the data, making it less relevant.
That would be an amazing project a group could take part in … just have a whole host of users post irrelevant data that sort of sounds acceptable but is complete nonsense. Post usual stuff but with a twist in everything. Use bad grammar, misplaced words, unusual syntax, falsehoods, lies and just general nonsense … over and over again.
well, yes and no. It’s an attempt to force the sub open and give the “option” to no longer moderate. They’re perfectly willing to part ways with you as a moderator as long as it gets the sub open. Their view is that everyone is replaceable.
change community rules to apply retroactively that in order to maintain freshness and improve visibility of smaller posts, anything over x days old or over x karma will be removed.
depends on the desires of the majority of the community I would say. If the majority of the community says they want to change the community, then who are we to disagree? I’d vote for the change. Unfortunately for that vote, I haven’t been on Reddit since before the blackout. The only reason I’ll be going back will be to delete some/all of my posts.
Yes, once I’ve had a few ideas that we like the sound of, we fully intend to offer the sub’s users a genuine vote on its future. If nothing else, it will stop Reddit admins from simply saying that we’re going against the members’ wishes.
Either way, once the new rules are in place and the sub is open I’ll personally be quitting as a moderator and leaving Reddit completely because I no longer wish to devote my unpaid labour to such a company.
I just received the same notice for my “largest” subreddit with 1.3k subs. But not my 500 or so sub ones. It’s been a fairly deadish sub for 2 years so I was surprised to get a notice.
Must be a mass mailing, maybe minimum traffic or sub count filter?
They’ll just restore it if you nuke it. Better to make the sub NSFW so they can’t make ad revenue off of it and set it so that all posts must be mod-approved, then only approve like one post every month so you can show as still being active.
I really don’t care enough. I admin a lemmy instance now. As soon as Apollo stops working I don’t plan on logging in again.
I’ve heard they’re restoring users that nuke their own posts, but I’m not sure I’ve heard anyone nuking a whole sub before. Mine is small enough to fly under a radar maybe?

Every line that anyone speaks has to be proceeded with proper syntax ECHO speak or removed. Responses should always be whatever they said, followed by C:\
“ECHO What command should I use to generate this?”
What command should I use to generate this?

If they try to type anything other than echo, just say the command is not valid or not found
Something that has me curious, is why have so many subs chosen John Oliver specifically? Like his content is pretty good and all, you could certainly do worse, but it seems an oddly specific subject matter to choose, unless there’s some reason.
John Oliver is a good sport about it, one, secondly he is a goofy motherfucker, third he has a track record of calling out things for being shitty/bad in ridiculous ways. So, it’s totally a John Oliver thing to do, to make all of Reddit about John Oliver because of the API change. It’s silly, it calls out the shitty practices, and honestly the whole practice will stick in the minds of people better than just a blackout/complaining. On top of all this, it has the possibility of being brought to his show when the strike is over, which’ll further the goal of the protests
I’d say allow everything! No restrictions. If a user thinks it’s appropriate, it is, barring site wide rules. Let them see what value moderation brings.

Only allow scripts or commands or tools that allow downloading or displaying or managing sexy pics of John Oliver. I.E. “This CLI will automatically download John Oliver pics from r/pics and covert them to ascii art.”
We’re not actually that small, we have about 90k subscribers. But we’re still small fry compared to many that are closed.
In the spirit of malicious compliance, if anyone has any suggestions for what /r/Commandline could become, I’d be delighted to hear them!

Yep, nsfw means no ads.
Also set it so a mod has to approve every post before it shows.
That way the sub is technically up and they can’t take it or make money off it.
Only pics of people going commando with visible tan lines
Jesus … lol … that’s hilirious … but also they said activity to make the site less attractive, not more attractive
Well, it being not safe for work does make it less attractive to advertisers.
This is my favorite, by far.

Each post must be precisely the word “comm”.
Each comment must be precisely the word “line”.
Comm and line.

This is an attempt to force the sub open and retain your free moderating services.

Apparently that’s what Huffman learned from Musk
They appear to be picking subreddits that would be high on search results. I can see how command line would fit.
If you have a way to find out what posts are returned most often through search engines you can remove them.

“Welcome to Com Man D Line. I’m your man on coms, what can I tell you about the D today?”
All posts could require l33t speak. Go full in on the “I’m a early 2000s hacker because I can ping Google” vibe.
reminds me of /(thatothersite)/itsaunixsystem
All posts must be pictures from the movie Hackers.
Hack the planet!
There is a high demand for scripts involving the package PRAW.
How about just opening without trolling?
It’s not trolling
It’s kind of trolling. Protest trolling? Trolling with a cause? Either way, I’m for it!

Probably not, but I was never in favor of theatrics like the submarine and the drugs. No need to be around a bunch of little deluded dupes.
Found Spez!
Posts must be images which are exactly 1 pixel wide. Post titles must all be the word “command”. No text allowed under the images.
Open the sub but only allow ChatGPT prompts

Allow NSFW content as well, that way reddit gets no money from you regardless as you have to flag it as a NSFW subreddit which means no ads.
Title: a command
Body: Output result of that command

ASCII pictures of John Oliver within command lines/terminals
This was my immediate thought too!
Something that has me curious, is why have so many subs chosen John Oliver specifically? Like his content is pretty good and all, you could certainly do worse, but it seems an oddly specific subject matter to choose, unless there’s some reason.

Only regular expression commands, that way the 99.9% of us will never understand the content.
I’d say allow everything! No restrictions. If a user thinks it’s appropriate, it is, barring site wide rules. Let them see what value moderation brings.
Sexy pictures of John Oliver, of course.

Create a strict commandline syntax that all posts must follow
Require all posts to be proper code for any command line syntax, but they must be tagged for that syntax
Only allow pictures of people directing lines of people or traffic (commanding lines)
Do nothing but rude code!
DO UNTIL 0=1
LOAD SUGUARO CACTUS INTO OBJECT BUTTHOLE (SPEZ)
LOOP
Only allow scripts or commands or tools that allow downloading or displaying or managing sexy pics of John Oliver. I.E. “This CLI will automatically download John Oliver pics from r/pics and covert them to ascii art.”
Make it a rule that all post be NSFW so Reddit can’t monetize it
bdsm equivilant of those wincest caption pics that are so popular? or line dancing pics/gifs/vids of people in uniform
Quotes from Zapp Brannigan.
I think allowing only discussion of how to set up lemmy instances via command line would make sense.
