  • In the case of r/aww, the community is also allowed to post pictures of Chiijohn.
  • r/iPhone decided to post pictures celebrating “dashing” Tim Cook.
  • r/Shitposting banned posts with the letter k.
  • r/Wellthatsucks is now a subreddit about vacuum cleaners.
  • r/Nofans is now a passive PC cooler subreddit.
  • r/Interestingasfuck removed a lot of all rules apart from asking members to not break site-wide rules.
  • r/Memes is allowing only Medieval / Landed Gentry memes. This is in response to Huffman’s “Landed Gentry” comment about protesting subreddits.

Shitposting is funny because the auto mod they are using to remove posts cites removing the post in order to save bandwidth for Reddit. The auto mod post is much longer than post being removed and contains K's. I found it funny anyway.
