Mates, today without warning, the reddit royal navy attacked. I've been demoded by the admins. (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

A fellow mod informed me that about it as I was laying in bed. Reddit sent a message to the mod team and after 1 hour demoded me. I didn't even had time to see it, never-mind respond to it.

Looks like we rattled reddit enough to start shooting. There goes all that fancy talk about our protest not affecting them much.

Just FYI for now. It's late here so I'll see how we proceed tomorrow.

I wonder how much of r/piracy traffic is people who would migrate to whatever fallback we got, seems like the only way. Fighting reddit whilest using it is pointless

This is fucking unbelievable

It looks like the sub is now in restricted mode - is that the doing of the other members of the mod team or is admin trying to control outrage?

I see there is a notice there now that the sub will open in 2 days. Nuts.

Reddit is fucked. I have a stash of memes to post when it’s time to brigade.
