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

@lemillionsocks now look at the size of twitter and the size of the hole its new owner put in it and tell us that can’t happen to reddit because of size?
True, but I agree with lemillionsock’s core point. Nothing short of Reddit pulling the plug on the servers will cause 430 million monthly active users to shift in any short time-frame. However, what is likely to happen is a sharp decline in quality as the core content contributors move on, then a slow gradual decline as the remaining users go “Where’d all the content go?”.
@Barbarian that’s my core point! Lemonsocks posted “reddit is too big to fail / reddit will burn on” but I think this is probably the beginning of a slow death.
