John Oliver understands the internet. Like, IMO it’s clear he likes it because he posted more exploitable images of himself, but even if he felt ambiguously about it, the best path forward isn’t to fight the internet, it’s to say nothing, or make a joke of it.
Someone else could learn a lesson from John Oliver.
He and his team are also probably loving this just because it gives them content to talk about on the show. It’s a win-win.
The writers’ strike is still a thing, so who knows when the next episode will be. But hopefully they cover this when they come back.
Man, I love John Oliver, dude. Such a wholesome guy.
Haha, good! U/Spez needs to understand that Reddit is nothing without the support of the community. 3rd parties have created the tools moderators need, and moderators do the work for free.
I hope John Oliver will expose this absurd situation that Reddit has put itself in.
Sadly, I suspect spez will see this as a win, since he’s got a major celebrity name-dropping his site and encouraging people to visit it.
But of course, John meant “Reddit” the way we mean “Reddit” – referring to the community, not the company or the product or whatever.
Remembering that the Hollywood writers strike is still a thing.
I hope he does a ChatGPT bit like Some More News did
I don’t even watch him but if he makes an episode about Reddit it’ll be worth watching
