Louis Rossmann's latest video about this Reddit situation is dead-perfect. I recommend watching it.

"What pisses me off about the failed Reddit protest..."

I know but that's not the right approach either. Also Reddit will forcefully reopen them to public so, I'll repeat myself again, the only way to make sensible change(s) is to completely stop visiting/using Reddit. Heavily reduced traffic = heavily reduced revenue = the only way for clowns like that CEO to understand anything.

Lies. Reddit grow was thanks to having several communities separated into their pages, with people collaborating and sharing information. Most people use the web browser to surf through it.

Mods actually have brought down the experience and some of them are downright tyrannical.

Every community needs mods regardless be it tyrannical or not. Otherwise things hit the fan really quick. And modding is something people put time into that not everyone is willing to do.

If people want to do any changes it's simple - stop using Reddit. Saying "we won't use it for a week, then we'll be back" is definitely not something to be afraid of as a CEO of anything, let alone such a huge platform. Simply stop using it altogether.

The world existed before Reddit, it will continue to exist without it just fine.

I hate reddit for the push to use their mobile app. Which is to push ads down your throat and harvest as much privacy sensitive info as possible.

He was also praising Elon Musk, so that tells you how big of a piece of s*** the guy is. Praising Musk or Trump... pretty much is a dead giveaway that someone is a terrible human being.

Reddit is bringing new API pricing and moderation policy changes that are causing quite the consternation among users and developers alike resulting in blackouts among thousands of subreddits. The new API pricing means that popular third-party apps like Apollo will have to cough up US$20 million per year, prompting the developer to retire the app on June 30. However, Reddit's CEO believes that the changes are important and that the protests would eventually fizzle out on their own.
