Reddit Asserts Control Over Protested Subreddit Amid Moderator Backlash

Reddit has taken control of r/malefashionadvice, a subreddit with over 5.4 million subscribers, after it participated in a protest against changes to the platform's API. The protest led to a drop in traffic for Reddit, and the company warned moderators that it would replace them if they kept their subreddits private or in read-only mode. Reddit has now appointed an admin account to be the sole moderator of r/malefashionadvice and is seeking volunteers to take over other subreddits affected by the protest.

Reddit's Turbulent Relationship with Moderators: A Saga of Takeovers and Apologies

Reddit has taken control of r/malefashionadvice, one of the largest subreddits that had been closed in protest of the platform's API pricing changes. The subreddit is now open in a restricted mode, allowing users to browse content but only certain users can make new posts. Former moderators of the subreddit were removed, as expected, after receiving a message from a Reddit admin. The community has shifted to Discord, which has gained traction with over 5,000 users. Other subreddits, including r/streetwear, remain private in protest.

Reddit Protests Force Minecraft Subreddit Closure

The official Minecraft subreddit, r/minecraft, with 7.4 million members, has announced that it will no longer be supported by developers Mojang due to recent changes made by Reddit management. The subreddit will remain as a community discussion hub, but users are now encouraged to contact the developers directly on their website or social media for support and information.

Switch Piracy Subreddit Banned for Promoting Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Downloads and Emulation.

The 'r/NewYuzuPiracy' subreddit, which covered Switch game piracy and emulation, has been banned due to a violation of Reddit's content policy. The subreddit had grown dramatically in recent weeks following the launch of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom on Switch, becoming the "de facto home" for discussion about mods in the new Zelda as well as how to download and emulate the game. Although both the original and New Yuzu Piracy subreddit have now been banned, there's always the possibility of another one being created (again) in the future, or existing members moving across to a related subreddit.

"Android 14 Beta: Improving Pixel Devices with New Features and Updates"

Google is improving the feedback process for the Android Beta subreddit by requiring submissions to specify the Android version and Pixel device through flairs. The subreddit will now focus purely on the Android Beta for Google Pixel devices, and questions about non-Pixel devices will be removed. Google may need to find another forum in the future, but for now, the Android Issue Tracker is not a suitable option.

Reddit Faces Backlash as Apple Subreddit Goes Dark in Protest.

The /r/apple subreddit has gone private in protest of Reddit's upcoming API pricing changes that threaten to put some third-party Reddit apps out of business. The blackout is part of an organized effort that includes other subreddits like /r/videos and /r/DIY. Reddit's API provides apps with Reddit data and has been free until now, but the new pricing is prohibitively expensive, with some developers owing Reddit millions of dollars per year. Despite backlash, Reddit has yet to reverse course on its plans, and the API changes are set to go into effect on July 1.
