Have a look, you'll see what I mean. They seem to think the site is dead or dying.

My sister, who is a diehard Imgurian, has been infodumping this entire drama on me all day so I know more than I even care to.

Some big company bought the platform, immediately fired what was left of the US moderation team, and the performance of the site has also gone to shit since the takeover. Now the users are protesting by spamming John Oliver images and that gif of The Hulk and Black Widow banging.
