Ngl it’s kinda funny that r/AmITheAsshole didn’t go dark.
YTA!
It’s in restricted mode. Not fully private but they’re not taking new submissions at least.
They’re restricted and the only post today was the moderator asking if he’s the asshole framed like he’s Spez. So I’d call it effectively the same thing.
“AITA for not making my subreddit private?”
r/amitheasshole
Yes, yes you are.
Over 7000, impressive
by the 1/2 way point it was already over 1b users affected, they only get about 1.6b users a month. At 7k, there is no user on reddit that is not significantly impacted, now we need this to go longer than 3 days!
basically having zero content to look at for 3 days should be enough for some but definitely not all
What happened to AITA?
Irony happened.
They became the very thing they hoped to destroy
Instead of going private, they only restricted posting to mod-only
They actually are bringing awareness to the issue in a direct way by not allowing new submissions, and making posts like this to bring awareness to the situation. I consider what they’re doing a net good.
It became that which it always feared: the asshole
It turns out they were the asshole all along.
Jokes aside, I think AITA is blocking new submissions.
Certainly the last post on the sub is from a mod describing the blackout, which was published 9 hours ago.
So, they might have decided to stay public for exposure to the issue. But there is no new content flowing
Yeah that seems par for the course
Where meme?
Never understand why r/games decided against, both their higher subreddit and lower subreddit did it. Also, Xbox didn’t and I tried to get them too. Love you Xbox, but screw your subreddit
r/gaming did go private. Do you mean r/games?
Yes! Corrected, thanks!
I like the way r/dankmemes did it most, they only allow API jokes. I think attention is more important than less engagement for reddit.
r/dankmemes is one of the reddit meme subreddits of all time
It really is one of the subreddits
You love to see it
