This 100%. Engagement to show your protest is still engagement. Give Reddit your absence.

I wish I did this. I went to check if there were any signs of the protest and couldn't help but contribute to one of the "fuck spez" signs

I then realized that place already felt kind of overdone last time they did it, this time it just feels completely meaningless

Place is cool when its people just working together to draw things. What is not cool is the corpo bots instantaneously placing their logo and people fucking with the art outside of the given rules to users. That ruins it completely.

we can do one thing, pretend like a lot of the engagement is fake, being a chill for myself real quick
