The last major holdouts in the protest against Reddit’s API pricing relented, abandoning the so-called “John Oliver rules” which only allowed posts featuring the TV host. It's the official end of the battle. The Reddit protest is over, and Reddit won.

    They mean the last of the big protesting subs finally stopped their protest rules. The places with rules saying you had to post John Oliver, or everything is nsfw, or any of the other stuff that popped up as a protest 2 months ago is now gone. In pet because admins slashed the mod teams and replaced them with cronies

      Which is hilarious because the new mods have no clue what the fuck they’re doing, and the content creators have left to places like here. So now it’s like a bunch of 15 year olds posting shit.
