It’s going to be a lot harder to pull off massive protests.
It’s not like they couldn’t put a stop to blackouts before, as seen with the third-party app fiasco, but Reddit has now made that tactic entirely impossible. Mods will now need to get permission from Reddit admins before they can make a sub private. Makes me wonder if they’re about to do something controversial again soon.
We have a responsibility to protect Reddit and ensure its long-term health, and we cannot allow actions that deliberately cause harm.
Truly, a harm for the platform when the moderators of /r/assesgonewild take their subreddit private for a week in protest. So far up their asses.
