Bit harsh but I brought it up before. When the blackout started, Reddit users created a place to share blackout news and organize. It was a subreddit.

I have to imagine the CEO laughed when he saw that.

semi-related - I left every group that thought joining the blackout was somehow intelligent

whether or not I agreed with said blackout (which as easily (probably more so) could have been done as a "day without Reddit", or like how some Facebook groups will close for new comments/posts periodically to take a break), such acts on the part of mods demonstrated they hadn't considered anyone but themselves when they did it
