#Reddit is forcing subs to reopen or they will remove the mods supporting the blackout. So, r/pics took a poll on whether to return to normal or only allow sexy pics of John Oliver. Guess what won?
Also, r/interestingasf*** was one of the best moderated and largest subs and was a catapult to internet virality. Since #reddit inc has said that mods don't own the sub, they've decided that only the users can decide what fits, so nothing will be removed unless it violates the reddit code of conduct.
Other subs are starting to join in the malicious compliance protest at #Reddit:
-r/art - only pics of John Oliver looking artistic -r/gifs - only gifs of John Oliver -r/showerthoughts - voting on which days the sub will be open or private
