How we monetize might need to change. Maybe less ads, more donations? Budgets will have to go down, but that’s not so bad if the leash finally comes off.
Out of curiosity, I went and checked the front page of r/all. Of the current top 25 posts, these are the ones which pertain to the Kimmel situation followed by their respective subreddit:
The post on r/politics pertains to before the show was pulled, but it was posted after it was officially pulled. Some subreddits do delete repeat posts that are about the same story to keep the discussion all in one thread, so maybe that has happened with that subreddit?

Spez got invited to talk to Congress about radicalism on social media. I bet that has something to do with it. Steve “Bugeyes” Huffman will not turn down an opportunity to help Trump out.
This is why the fediverse matters. Kimmel or Colbert, right now they can turn to platforms like YT and will still be able to get the voice out.
But guess what. The same corporatism that control ABC control google. You live on their platforms your message is dependent on their approval.
The future is free; the future is federated.

I’ll try to find the one I navigated to but they kept getting closed for being “off topic”.
Also I’d argue the FCC making a threat and ABC actually pulling the guy are 2 separate stories.
I don’t think it’s some Reddit wide cabal as much as R/Politics sucking

If the fediverse was a threat then it would also be a target.
