    He’s right. Most of the site will go back to normal on the 14th. A 2 day protest only tells them that the users will accept any change they make with only minimal whining.

          I agree, although the process of replacing mods will be pretty messy. You might have to do that for 1000’s of subs. A reddit employee is going to go through each one, kick off the old mods, set it to public, and recruit new mods? That’s a long winded process to do it at scale.

          I think in reality there won’t be that many subs that stay dark permanently, but even if a handful of bigger subs hold out, it will be a shitshow.

          Reddit won’t really be the same again…

      Just like how everyone claimed they’d cancel Netflix but then signed up and made a new account when they blocked account sharing. People in aggregate are idiots.
