I’m torn, on one hand this is hilarious and if they didn’t do this the admins would just change the moderators to someone who would run it. On the other hand, Reddit got what it wanted: the sub has reopened, posts are flowing, ads are being served and Reddit is making money.
i honestly doubt that the traffic R/pics had before this change will stay.
this is the best way honestly even better than restricted it will effectively hurt the traffic while they ( officially ) cant be dicks i mean they still can but you know.

They will see a spike in revenue but people will get bored and stop caring about the sub after a while
