“The blackouts are not representative of the greater Reddit community.”

Of course not. The vast majority of Reddit are lurkers that don't interact with anything and just mindlessly consume. Even bots add more value to a platform, than most lurkers. It's the content creators and people that interact with them through comments, that create value.
