It’s going to be a lot harder to pull off massive protests.

    But they can’t force them to moderate or to not immediately delete every post made.

        Sure, but that is a really lengthy process. Reddit would really like to avoid that, too. They want the moderators to be good little slaves and nothing more.

      Can’t come soon enough IMO. Not necessarily because I want Reddit to suffer, but because I want Lemmy to thrive.

    Gonna require much more effort to do it, likely won’t be considered peaceful or legal protests but it’ll still be possible. Events like this offer a solution, a much more ugly and unpleasant one but a solution regardless. Every company has security holes, Reddit is no different. They can only deny the peaceful kind of protest, not the kind that would really hurt them.

    Pretty sure there’s only bots and people who aren’t leaving as long as they have something to break up the time with now and then.
