What are the chances Reddit doesn’t give a shit and just waits it out. Only gonna last till the 14th anyways.

Some subs are going “indefinite” but Admins will just replace the mods.

WhitePeopleTwitter is doing a half-assed thing that doesn’t actually do anything.

And the big “news” ones that are 100% controlled by feds (news, worldnews, politics etc) are ignoring the blackout too. No polls, no discussions, nothing. Makes sense, too. Those the ones used to push Western propaganda. Can’t let some unpaid shmucks shut it down in “protest”.

    Basically the only reason this is happening is because reddit want to kill these alternative apps because they want that traffic in their own app where they can serve ads. They made api access prohibitively expensive in order to kill third party apps.

    That's it really.

    And their app sucks fucking ass. Even Apple don't advertise the reddit app, Apple have used Apollo in official advertisements and presentations when accessing reddit.

      Private property is so cool and good I love how it solves problems instead of creating them!
