The vow to extend the demonstration came after CEO Steve Huffman reportedly sent a memo to staff saying Reddit would “get through it” while opining that “like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well.” In response to Huffman doubling down, a user wrote, “Let them fuck around and find out.”
Moderators from well-trafficked subreddits, including r/awww, r/music, r/videos, r/futurology, r/apple and r/NBA (among many others) chimed in to commit to an indefinite protest.
The way to support more is to make content, and try to fill in the gap between reddit’s 10 years of content and the bit we have here. That’s really it.
I mean so far it’s going good, we’ll see in the coming weeks and months.
I’m doing my part!
