So according to Wikimedia Commons, this image is public domain (it was published in 1828). Link to the original: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The_Cap_of_a_Fool_fits_the_Head_of_a_Dunce.png

Maybe this would be less offensive?

Yes, it was a simple graphic I whipped up in the Gnu Image Manipulation Program.

According to Stack Exchange, nods are yes and shakes are no in English Speaking countries. In Albania, Bulgaria, Greece, and Macedonia a single nod means no according to a Reddit post. The same post indicates that in India and other South-East Asian countries the conventions of nodding for ‘yes’ and shaking your head for ‘no’ is inverted to mean the opposite. The Indian version is more of a side-to-side bob or wobble than a shake. I guess it’s best to learn yes and no when traveling abroad and use the words when possible.

Is the image too large to show a thumbnail? Is this hosting site not approved? http://midi.moe/f/bsid.png

Actually, as a mod, that’s the strongest action you could take… stop moderating for free for reddit. “Jun 12, 2023 When they’re all functioning normally, Reddit boasts nearly 140,000 active subreddits at any given time” according to https://wegotthiscovered.com/social-media/how-many-subreddits-are-on-reddit/ Now imagine 1 in 10 subreddits were abandoned by their mods. That’s 14,000 subreddits without moderation. Let Spez take over the role of the Landed Gentry for 14,000 subreddits. If he thinks he’s not making money now, how much will he have to pay to take care of all those subreddits?

Spez is a narcissist. Why give him your labor for free?

Sure, they may get another sucker to do it for free, why be a narcissist’s sucker?

If he’s abused these mods, he’ll abuse those mods. And yes, he could get AI to do this, but then again, years ago* (Steve H became CEO in 2015) we were promised a better Reddit app. Like the music business, Reddit is constantly losing money, unwilling to change, but still around.

*I would link it, but for some reason, U/Spez’s history stops 3 years ago. I’m sure it’s a Reddit glitch that will be fixed just like the better Reddit app that’s waiting for us under the rainbow.
