    I think the thought of major subs going private out of protest has them at least a little worried. Worried enough to try to backtrack on the changes that will affect moderators to “give them more time”, but only if they don’t participate in the blackout.

    Sounds a lot like threatening at this point (and who knows if they’ll follow through with their promises if even one sub goes dark), which ironically is the same thing they accused the Apollo dev of doing to the Reddit team.

        I’m always amazed when I see someone using new reddit or the official app. I just don’t understand how, it’s soooo bad

        Because the old Reddit site isn’t bogged down with useless avatars, NFTs, and 10 GB of JavaScript.
