Over on Reddit, the protest continues.
It's been almost a month now since thousands of popular subreddits went dark to protest Reddit's API (application programming interface) changes, which saw the site introducing fees that have led to third-party apps like Apollo – which couldn't afford them – being forced to shut down.
SEE ALSO:Reddit's API protest just got even more NSFWFollowing the blackout, a number of major subreddits carried on protesting in their own inventive ways. r/pics, a community with over 30 million subscribers, started by only allowing images of John Oliver on the subreddit, before expanding the rule to allow all media of John Oliver. In the meantime they also briefly made their sub NSFW — a tongue-in-cheek response to the level of "profanity" in posts, which had the side effect of meaning Reddit couldn't show ads alongside posts in the community. At the time of writing, after Reddit threatened the moderation team with removal, this appears to have been changed back.

A former Reddit CEO is turning arid land into robust forests. Here’s how to scale it globally.
Now, as of this week, r/pics has made a direct appeal to John Oliver, inviting the man himself to join their moderation team. Here's a snippet:
"Yes, we’re serious. Yes, it’s a real invitation.
To be clear, moderation is a thankless, unpleasant endeavor, and we wouldn’t wish it on anyone: You’re a constant target for bad actors, you receive no end of ill-informed abuse, you’re frequently exposed to horrifying media, and you’re thanked by way of being called “a power-hungry basement-dweller” or “landed gentry.” It used to be that moderators could count on support from administrators, but said support has been dwindling for years (even as volunteering on Reddit has gotten more and more difficult). Still, since John Oliver has become the literal face of r/PICS, we figured that it was only fair to offer him a look behind the scenes!
Please feel free to say “Oh, hellno!” to us, John… but if you’re interested, we’ll look forward to showing you around!"
The invitation was made on Monday, and at the time of writing John Oliver has yet to respond — but given that he's currently in the middle of a standup tour, it's possible that he may be a bit busy for moderation duties.
