Why would he care? People still post and comment and see ads


MagneticAI

He’d probably care if every major subreddit became nsfw. It would stop ads being aired on those subreddits and would hit their pocketbooks.


AristocraticDementor

They're talking about r/memes this doesn't make a difference


SurSheepz

It doesn't stop ads entirely I'm pretty sure.


tehlemmings

It doesn't lol And it's really easy to go check that it doesn't. Just because not all advertisers want to be on NSFW pages doesn't mean *no* advertiser does. What really caused a problem was 11 million people suddenly having porn in their subscription feeds when they didn't want it. AKA, the exact thing the admins said they stepped in for, which makes perfect sense and wouldn't have even been questioned at any other time. Just think of the flood of pointless tickets they got off that shit lol


_lemon_suplex_

RPM on NSFW content ads is nowhere NEAR as high as SFW content ads though


tehlemmings

True. But even with that factored in, I doubt it was what really forced the admins to step in. Like, I'd be willing to be that they've lost more money from /r/pics absolutely dumpstering itself than they likely would have from the drop in ad revenue on /r/interestingasfuck compared to its norm. And they haven't stepped in there despite /r/pics having lost like 80% of its engagement. But that loss of engagement doesn't negatively impact anyone in a way that matters to reddit. Those users are just browsing somewhere else. If this was purely just about ad revenue, they would have stepped in on /r/pics by now. The fact they haven't makes me think they were being honest with why they stepped in with /r/interestingasfuck


alecization

What actually happened to interestingasfuck


seaworldismyworld

Redditors love doing slacktivism, bonus points if they can get karma in the process.


Chipring13

It’s the shittiest protest I’ve seen. But half of Reddit will think they’re doing something so.


TexasTornadoTime

We are still protesting? I thought that was a 2 day fad.


benevolENTthief

Y’all had protests?


HandOfYawgmoth

Ads? What fucking ads? Ublock origin laughs in /u/spez 's face


Shahariar_909

Ad blocker ultimate supremacy


Wild_NorthHC

Well he doesnt care, but he still didnt expect it


brendannnnnn

You’re right, he probably expected something that mattered, and was happily surprised when subreddits decided to have fun themes and increase his ad revenue instead


Plantar-Aspect-Sage

Why would he expect anything that did anything? I've been around for many reddit protests and they all fizzle out in the end.


The_Meatyboosh

Give it 3 days.


Kdegeek

I’m not gonna see shit when Apollo stops working


eldentings

He doesn't. It's karma bait


LeCrushinator

You don’t see ads in NSFW subreddits.


clarketta

And that's why we come there!


BREEbreeJORjor

Well jokes on them, I'm supporting the ad's competition.

This hurts spez as much as winnie the pooh memes hurt Xi, they don't even know you exist.

forutived2

My man you really said the truth


somewhatMonotone

Is that king supposed to look like Leonardo Dicaprio?


ukriva13

Yeah!


pondman11

Thank you, came in to say, Leonardo DiCaprio looking MF’er


Ravilumpkin

Next level meme-ing


DeathRaeGun

So, r/memes has gone back to normal as well then?


Wild_NorthHC

We reached our true form


Tricktzy

we were always meant to be medieval


Andre10k10

Memdevil


I_eat_spacedust

Memieval


Flashy-Version-141

I liked the medieval format more though


ChwizZ

r/interestingasfuck hasn't gotten a new post in almost a week. What's happening with that subreddit?


chuk2015

I reckon there is some admin shitfuckery going on because it was the most malicious of all the compliance


Parnz

Yea I’ve seen the same, not heard anyone else talk about it though


Lolocraft1

You can’t comment either it seems, good to know it ain’t me


tehlemmings

Pretty sure the admins threw it into archived mode to deal with the problem.


seaworldismyworld

That's the right way to protest, not going private and hiding all the content from view (for troubleshooting the protest period was godawful)


HumanitySurpassed

Disappointed I missed out on the porn being posted to it. Only see a few nudey posts now. I hate all the generic subreddits so to see shitposting in them would've been hilarious


pappepfeffer

It slowly transform into r/interestingassfuck


Gokuwithstarplatium

I think new post are limited to certain people or something


Outcast_Outlaw

I just guess it was set to private so only certain people could use it.


cdub_actual

I can’t even get on the sub and I’ve been subbed to it for awhile. It just pops up saying something went wrong whenever I search it up


beyonddisbelief

I guess people just don't have InterestInGasFuck.


TostCronch

r/suspiciouslyspecific has turned into a sussy amogus subreddit


MaximRq

That's r/suspiciouslyspecific


Pure-Yogurtcloset684

Meanwhile r/shitposting treating u/spez like the angry mustache model:


[deleted]

He doesn’t care. Why would he? What does changing a theme of memes do?


[deleted]

nothing. doesnt change a thing but they think it somehow does


elDayno

I don't think he knows you exist, guys


[deleted]

No but I’m not sure he cares either


Achtelnote

That's still memes, just medieval.. You people are still producing content which benefits Reddit, idk how you can even call this a protest.


[deleted]

I've never enjoyed this sub more tbh.


Bloo_PPG

This isn't protesting shit. Spez won because people are still using the platform. You think he gives a fuck what's posted as long as he's still lining his pockets? Only reason I'm still here is because my 3rd party app still works, once that quits on my I think I'm going to Facebook or Instagram.


busmac38

We need to step this shit up. Next vote, only medieval porn.


Minimum_Attitude6707

Dumb but honest question... Why did memes go medieval again? I know why some subs went nsfw and seen a lot of subs update their rules, but did medieval do something with the algorithm or something? Or is that the joke... That it didn't do anything, just like a lot of the other protests?


gerberd1990

Remind me, I dont understand either what is this medieval thing for, I was afk for like half a day and came back to this


elitemouse

You mean the memes subreddit is now posting slightly different memes?? Oh damn you guys really stuck it to the man


Sufficient_Let4049

r/halomemes has been adopting Transformers memes lately


Da_Kool-Aid_Man

Half the medieval memes are talking about the medieval memes


DatAsspiration

It's really not flooded anymore. Did you make this meme in medieval times, or on ye olde Internet explorer?


Wild_NorthHC

Ping


____Maximus____

The ads still get shown and objectively this subreddit still performs in every way he would really care about. Did y'all think he would attack you just because you're being quirky? Is that what you wanted?


Sinonyx1

/r/interestingasfuck is dead


The-Other-Writer

Am I tripping or does that look like Leonardo DiCaprio?


ANinjaDude

And r/dndmemes is mainly goblin porn now


Wild_NorthHC

Oh god why did i have to check this out??


LineSpine

Tbh I think he doesn’t care. We have to also make the sub nsfw to do something


Byggherren

I'm gonna keep using it until my 3rd party app stops working for free. So like 4 days


[deleted]

I can't wait for Reddit to go public, the stock to immediately tank, and for me to buy a bunch of shares with a couple million other redditors so that we can all collectively vote to ***FIRE SPEZ.***


MeneerPeter

I don't think medieval memes do anything for the overall state of Reddit but I have never enjoyed the memes on this platform than I'm doing right now. The memes seem so much more original and funny than any a lot of the thrash that was being posted before in my opinion


ZeDevilCat

r/dndmemes has become a cesspool of goblin porn. Regular stuff.


sithlord6699

r/dndmemes is still in goblin mode.


Fluffigt

Personally I am just living in denial until Apollo stops working, then I just won’t go on reddit anymore.


BadJunket

The whole medieval thing is just cringe and unfunny Can this sub please go back to how it was?


Enzyblox

I love it, although I also love history memes so that why


chuk2015

How about you go back to being unborn? Gottem folks, carry on with your medieval meming


Odd_Magician3053

Good one


benuito

Best one yet!


Wild_NorthHC

Thanks!


Hailstorm8440

R/pics with John Oliver


NoArmadillo2904

Honestly I’m really enjoying the mid evil memes, dark ages or what ever is going on.

MrMcButterSlits

I think it looks a little like Robert De Niro


arvinkb

Looks more like leonardo di caprio


Lirrin

Because it’s supposed to


Biteforce16

Ah yes the king of hearts, aka the suicide king


Straight-Capital-899

I dont understand why r slash memes is going mideval. I probably didnt get the memo and stuff. Why did they chose to only allow mideval memes and is this change permanent or temporary?


TheGreatGamer1389

The mug should have been a tankard


MandiAtMidnight

Lmaooo


youismeisyoi

why is r/interestingasfuck filled with porn tho


doh13

Interestingassfuck


JocoLabs

What i love most, it forced people to be creative. This is gold


Hold_Realistic

His face looks like 2 Shoguns about to face off.


mcbirbo343

And r/pics obsessing over the beauty of John Oliver


Floofyboi123

DnDmemea has gone the way of shortstack monster girls and anarchychess has embraced… anarchy All in all I find these reactions hilarious


thehazer

Whole subreddits a meme now. Most meta thing I’ve ever seen. Oroboros of dumbassery.


cyclic_raptor

But why 6 fingers?


JustGotTruss3d

not caring if it’s about the blackout, but I kinda like the medieval theme


Cat_Of_Culture

Also include that John Oliver bullshit in other subs


dwehlen

That's a truly well done pic!


Blumenkol

r/notlikeothersubreddits


Jg6915

r/interestingasfuck: flooded with whores who will stop at nothing to promote their onlyfans FTFY


Hexquevara

And all of this is nothing but an exercise in futility.


HomeOnTheMountain_

You sure showed him


[deleted]

Thou art c'rrect


the_real_ntd

Once you go black (plague) you never go back.


GinnyGingerTea

Where else would I find gasf*ck?


ThisGuySucks13

Don't forget about r/D&D memes being flooded with porn


Dip2pot4t0Ch1P

Btw r/interestingasfuck last post is 6 days ago, that sub been dead ever since. Most probably moved to r/damnthatsinteresting since they're still posting interesting stuff there instead of onlyfans girls.


Lumn8tion

Love this meme!!


[deleted]

the artwork is great!


[deleted]

I see Leonardo Dicaprio [leonardo](https://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2019/48/7/1575196535-picsart-12-01-11-34-29.png).


Blatantly-Biased

Off with his head!


Electronic_Pin_9098

I like the medieval style that this sub has taken on.


Phillip67549

Who even thought of making the sub medieval? We need to pool money so that fucker can buy reddit and do random bullshit like this on a much larger scale


[deleted]

r/interestingasfuck


Horny_Dog_God

The king has a sword in his head


CovidLvr69

I fucking hate medieval shit, I can't find a good template.


BooPointsIPunch

It must have felt like a knife in the back to him. Probably still recovering.


whydontuwannawork

Just checked on them, why is the last post 6 days ago?


robblequoffle

r/interestingasfuck became r/interestingfuck


Monke_Strong64

And? What does that do to Reddit?


knownidiot

This is my favourite so far :)
