Reddit CEO tells employees that subreddit blackout “will pass”
“We absolutely must ship what we said we would.”
“There’s a lot of noise with this one. Among the noisiest we’ve seen. Please know that our teams are on it, and like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well”

One thing is for sure, goodwill was lost and some would-be contributors and commentors have left the platform for good. It might be a small percent, but it happened, and something was lost due to their handling of this.
@Parallax I left, and started up a magazine here to fill the hole. Went back to let other people in the sub know they have a place in the fediverse if they want. I believe in rewarding companies who are doing it right, and not giving my business to those who don't. Reddit is showing me they don't give a shit, so meh, no thanks guys. Sure, I'm only one person, but if you stand for nothing, you'll fall for anything, as the saying goes.
It doesn't matter how many users leaves. It matters how much contribution is lost.
The right users leaving is worse than half of everyone else leaving.
