Really funny and impossible to block

    This is pretty funny, but I still think it would piss investors off more if there was just a mass influx of gay porn without nsfw tags in every sub after the mod tools break. Hard to get advertisers that way. 🤷

      What would really piss off investors is if nobody used the site. Posting memes to and visiting the site you’re trying to protest doesn’t achieve anything.

      Don’t even need porn. Just have a wave of spambots poised and ready. There’s a non-zero chance many of the big moderation tools will break, and moderators using the site/official app could be overwhelmed, and I’d not be surprised if some spam/repost bot operators were waiting for precisely that moment, because the mods would be more limited in what they can do/use.

      Yeah, the “post pictures of steam, etc.” stuff is funny for a one-off, but it’s still technically content and it’s not like reddit doesn’t already have meme subs along those lines. I fear it will just become part of the culture after a while.

      Easy enough to just never mod again and the porn will post itself. If spez complains, do the exact bare minimum like posting one single semi-relevant meme or telling off one single user that is definitely a bot so it doesn’t care.

      You’re not camping, you’re just being really laid back in your modding style.

        I’d guess that spam will show up sooner. I mean, I didn’t see people actively trying to post porn to random subs much during the runup to this. But I definitely see spam attempts.
