It’s going to be a lot harder to pull off massive protests.

It’s not like they couldn’t put a stop to blackouts before, as seen with the third-party app fiasco, but Reddit has now made that tactic entirely impossible. Mods will now need to get permission from Reddit admins before they can make a sub private. Makes me wonder if they’re about to do something controversial again soon.

    It won’t. Most people are not lemmy users, not aware of the issues, they just consume content. Others will take up the reigns and the place will be noticably worse for those of us who care about community. Those who care about consuming content will not.
