I'm also more than welcome to just attempt to take over the existing subs, which is much more convenient for everyone involved.

Inconvenience is a desired feature of the protest, but not of Reddit - at least not to this extent.

> Why is it other peoples responsibility to not inconvenience you?

I never claimed it was. But if people are leaving to Lemmy, then they should leave the subs to people that are fine staying on Reddit. Ultimately, they don't own the subs, Reddit does, and if Reddit is willing to reassign them, I don't see a problem with that.

Well, not everyone involved right? If I understand correctly, just the people who don't care about the people affected by the API cost increase.

Everyone involved still relevant. The people doing the protest say they will not use reddit after third party apps no longer work, so really they shouldn't care about what happens after they leave.

They are only irrelevant if the protests don't work, right?

[PrimeMcFly]

Yup.
