Well, I‘m not a mod but I‘m kinda sad they didn‘t know how to really hurt Reddit, or they didn‘t want to.
They should just have said nothing an on the day of the blackout they should have let the p*** bots go wild on their subreddits. Not labeling them as NFSW. Some legit advertisement next to someone g***** h*** would have rly hurt Reddit short and long term.
This on the other hand is nice for moral but you can just sit it out on Reddits side.
The majority aren‘t bots. Most of them are legit no lifers to whom Reddit going down the drain would be a huge blow. I mean you work full time as a cashier for taco bell and you are not really happy with that situation. Some people go to school again, learn a skill… others spend all their time one Reddit stockpiling karma. Those are the people who really hate lemmy and anything that could remotely make Reddit worse, because they are heavily invested in the platform for the wrong reasons.
