The comments are so misinformed it’s confusing, is it astroturfing?

    Honestly, it’s all for the best. Anyone who actually cares and not terribly addicted has moved on. Other then pro-spez people, those who changed their stance probably learned about the true cost of activism and realised they can’t live without their Reddit fix during the blackout.

    I still read Reddit through a RSS reader but I don’t contribute anymore. I would feel more ok with them if they weren’t profiting off volunteer work, or at least take in the feedback about the shitty app make it better, e.g. accessibility issues

    I doubt it. A lot of Reddit is for activism until it mildly inconveniences them. They probably had nothing to do but read shampoo bottles when they went to the bathroom once and decided the black out wasn’t worth it in their opinion
