It looks like a lot of people think the blackout is pointless and support Reddit's choice (www.reddit.com)

"This is the most neckbeard thing I’ve ever seen in my life. Reddit is a business trying to make money, no shit they are going to get rid of third party apps eventually. Welcome to the real world. You are not being oppressed. This protest has zero effect on anything other than just inconveniencing users. If losing third party apps ruins your reddit experience (oh no) just find another app or website."

"This is absolutely stupid virtue signaling. It’s just a few power hungry mods pretending to add some meaning to their life so the other 99% can’t use the platform.

None of us regular people give a crap about the changes. Get over it."

Reminder of how stupid and toxic some communities are

To redeem some of it, there seems to be good support for further blacking out r/gaming. Can't fault the mods for coming back after 2 days like they said they would, but they should have thought that through a bit more from the start.

Also remember there are "free market" apologists that think a business should be able to charge whatever they want, whenever they want. Charging so much for access that it drives servicew/apps to shutdown is not ok on any level.
