I read The Verge’s latest interview with Steve Huffman here and it seems as though the Reddit blackout is having little to no effect. It also seems as though the communities at large don’t really care and will probably just use the official app or don’t really know there are 3rd party ones. So it seems this will pass and be mostly forgotten about.
What are your thoughts?
Steve’s trying to discourage people. He’s scared about the logistics and fallout that come with up and replacing the mods forcing subs to open.
We also have to be weary that anyone posting on here could be working in favour of Reddit’s interest, trying to discourage subs to open as well.
