The /r/videos mods are going all out and someone made this lovely graphic to explain why subs are going dark next week.
While I’d love to have my users on Lemmy, I also hope that this actually does something for Reddit and they reverse course on their planed changes.
Ultimately will break my Reddit addiction for me. Not enough content here to replace it entirely, and I’m fine with that. I suspect that the damage has been done and a lot of people will not being going back to Reddit regardless if they backpeddle or not.
Crazy some of the comments sections tho, a lot of people are pissed at Mods for backing the protest. Its like people who cant see past their noses how bad this idea is.
Take a look at /r/nba. Even worse.
Wow the people crying about not having Reddit for the finals like they wont know what’s going on… HOW DO YOU THINK REDDIT GETS IT’S CONTENT!
Redditors man wtf
It’s probably why companies like Reddit can get away with stuff like this. Most common users have no idea how much they’re being shat on. They couldn’t care less about the platform as long as they get their content.
