Some of the planned blackouts will be temporary, others plan to shut their subreddits down indefinitely in protest.

    The blackout must be accompanied from a viable alternative easily presented. I just learned about lemmy and I’m trying to see if I can have a place here. I don’t plan on leaving Reddit forever but you never know, and this api fiasco has at least shown me alternatives I never knew existed.

      Lemmy is good, it’s still rough around the edges but still useable, its not bad at all, the influx of people overload the servers tho, but it will certainly improve, and the current app (Jerboa for Android) is not as good as the popular Reddit clients for the moment, but it’s definitely better than the Reddit official app.
