Hey Lemmy gang. Just signed up after seeing this.
Is anyone surprised? The "blackout" seems to have been a total flop most subs don't give a shit.

Fuck spez
I can see subs being dark becoming a permanent thing, hopefully coders update reddit to html updater or similar tools to pull from archived zsv files.

What I don't get is who they're posturing for now.
They showed the developers that the game was fixed and there was no plan to negotiate in good faith.
They've shown the userbase they aren't responsive to strongly held concerns.
They've shown a potential IPO audience that they're capable of burning down the platform in record time and not even waiting until after they cashed out to do so.
They've shown everyone they don't even have the most basic understanding of corporate bullshit speak. It's not hard to put together "We hear your concerns and will assemble a committee of top minds who will proceed to ignore these concerns."
I guess they just want to say they didn't back down. That and $12.50 gets you a cup of coffee.

They absolutely detest their userbase :(
no wonder since most of the subs are only going offline for 2 days
I couldn't be the only one who found 2 days to be a ridiculously low time as well.

Then the next thing to so is mass delete your posts and comments and then the account. Scorched earth and all that jazz

It's going to be an uphill battle and maybe even a siege. It's going to mean these sub-reddits are going to have to be dark for the foreseeable future if they want to make it painful for Spez and team.

I'll be interested to see if they try to keep the money happy by trying to kill porn on reddit. If they try that reddit would be in worse shape than Trump.

"we're going dark for two days!" isn't going to change anything. reddit mods live for reddit. Why would they leave?
"Nobody goes there anymore, its too crowded."
Really, though. What's the point of contributing to a thread that already has hundreds of top level posts. Something new and fresh is worth a try.
