Originally, the protest was planned to be 48 hours. However, after a shambolic AMA held by Reddit’s CEO, it has become clear to us that Reddit doesn’t intend to act in good faith. When the CEO is willing to lie and spread libellous claims about another third-party developer, and then try double down by vilifying them, again, in an AMA, despite being proven as a liar by the developer through audio recordings, that’s when we knew what we were up against. Therefore, the subreddit will be privatised until such time as a reasonable resolution is proposed.
I think it does matter. Not everybody can replace everybody immediately. A lot of people a lurkers and sheeples. You always have a core of excellent people that carry the community. Mods (mostly) are really the glue who holds the sub together. And you have a few key people that create amazing content, several that round it out and those if you lose … good night.
