So, I see r/NZ is back. That's it? What an anemic protest. I guess I'm honestly surprised more people don't care. I expected the protest to go on longer, but I guess I overestimated how much the average user cared about this.

Unfortunately, I think it probably means we won't see a lot of growth in Lemmy now. Shame.

An alternative location for community during blackout is definitely what was missing this time. Mods need to set up and flag the alternative location in fediverse or otherwise) so users and content posters know where to go. This will also place the only real pressure that Reddit will feel - existential threat of a viable alternative ala Digg exodus.
