Their post announcing it, has comments disabled. I have been going on reddit looking for polls to vote “yes” to continue to participate in the blackout. This was kind of a bummer.
Edit: Looking at the mods most recent post, they’re still putting up a fight! And all new posts have 0 upvotes and I can’t see comments from RiF anyway. Can anyone else see anything from other reddit apps?
Unfortunately the protest seems to basically be done. I think Mods should have had a plan to come back but to “quiet quit” and allow communities to go to shit to prove that what they do has value. Plus it would be much harder for Reddit to control that or identify where it’s being done.
Unfortunately it seems there was no real plan beyond the 2 day blackout, which should have been a starting point not a finish line.
I’d bet when the 3rd party apps are actually gone, we’ll get a second wind. People haven’t been forced to use the shitty app yet.
I’m about to go on vacation until the end of the month, but I’m probably just gonna try to step away from social media in general and just read books more instead. These ghouls are just taking a note from Twitter not completely tanking after Elon did evil anti-competitive shit and figuring they can do the same, so the only way to show them otherwise is to withdraw any support or attention you give them.
