“This is the most neckbeard thing I’ve ever seen in my life. Reddit is a business trying to make money, no shit they are going to get rid of third party apps eventually. Welcome to the real world. You are not being oppressed. This protest has zero effect on anything other than just inconveniencing users. If losing third party apps ruins your reddit experience (oh no) just find another app or website.”

"This is absolutely stupid virtue signaling. It’s just a few power hungry mods pretending to add some meaning to their life so the other 99% can’t use the platform.
None of us regular people give a crap about the changes. Get over it."
Exactly. A two-day+ blackout is a warning. “Check your metrics. See that red line? This time, it’s temporary. Next time could be permanent. Just saying. Anyway, how’re those accessibility features coming along?”
Everyone saying “it’s pointless” or “it failed” is not seeing beyond the tip of their own noses. It only “failed” if moderators and Redditors aren’t willing to follow through on the threat come July. We have yet to see if that’s the case.
Where did I say any of that? I’m genuinely confused how my comment was so profoundly misread/misunderstood.
