Out of curiosity before midnight, I’ve been lurking in incognito to see what subreddits appear and I saw WhitePeopleTwitter has a long post and is choosing to stay open.

WhitePeopleTwitter shows solidarity with the current protests on reddit against the fundamental changes to site architecture.

This moderated thread will remain open for everyone to comment in.

The comments that are in-favor of a real ‘blackout’ are being deleted.

I was even banned for commenting complicity. Interested to hear people’s takes. Anyone else face a similar story or think it’s justified?

  • I remember on the Save 3rd Party Apps sub there was a point about not criticising those not partaking. I suppose now I’m off there I can call the mods of the other subs scabs. I know subs like r/NBA kept it up due to where they are in the season but, like, can’t you see this is bigger than that? If the blackout doesn’t succeed, Redditors will forever be at the mercy of their corpo overlords.
