Imgur's Community Is in Full Revolt Against Its Owner (404media.co)

First was the "fuck you business daddy" memes: John Oliver and middle fingers. I guess the site adjusted its filters and they all got banned.

Yesterday was boobs everywhere. And then those stopped.

Today, it's all blacked out; everyone posting "FYBD" with a solid black JPG.

The malfeasant corporate owner has probably noticed at this point.

It's heartwarming to watch a community stand up for itself. It's not a site, it's people with connections that meet in real world and support each other. So when enshittification knocks, it's not the site they're concerned about: the community can go elsewhere and the site is just a vessel.

Meanwhile, US voters should learn what protest looks like.
