Thoughts on communities refusing to "go dark?"
(beehaw.org)
Out of curiosity before midnight, I've been lurking in incognito to see what subreddits appear and I saw WhitePeopleTwitter has a long post and is choosing to stay open.
WhitePeopleTwitter shows solidarity with the current protests on reddit against the fundamental changes to site architecture.
This moderated thread will remain open for everyone to comment in.
The comments that are in-favor of a real 'blackout' are being deleted.
I was even banned for commenting complicity. Interested to hear people's takes. Anyone else face a similar story or think it's justified?
It's a difficult discussion. Because if they stay open, reddit will probably keep having leverage over everyone because they have an enormous library of previous discussions. If no one bothers to switch, it will never change.
