Shimmering-Sky said: We had a last wave of sentimental posts, then a typical last comment race with an "ending things" themeMorning, everyone! It felt so weird not checking Reddit this morning like I always do after waking up. |
Nameorsomething said: The DarkAudit unremoveningI decided to check Reddit just to see what it looked like with about half the subreddits in existence privated and found I had notifications in my inbox but couldn't see any of them. I guess that's what happens when you get notifications from a recently privated sub? |
Shimmering-Sky said: many of them would be in the discord I think, but yeah that throws a giant wrench into plans...so it looks like the sub is staying private for at least a week. That... sucks for literally all of my rewatches... |
| So...now what? What do I do with myself lol Make some chicken tetrazzini I guess. Reddit LeechBlock Counter: 4 |

Shimmering-Sky said: I don't think rescheduling the new rewatches would be rejected? Or is the date importantTresnore said: I'm gonna have to post Juushinki Pandora and Heroic Age threads at the same time at this rate... I specifically agreed to co-host the latter on its schedule and at that posting time because I assumed it wouldn't overlap with the former, but this just threw a wrench into that.Yeah, it's not great... #dejected |
Shimmering-Sky said: chiliehead said: It's because I also want the 6 pm timeslot for my Death Parade rewatch in August, which has to start on August 1st because that's when I started the Death Parade rewatch back in 2018. If Heroic Age gets delayed to not overlap with Juushinki Pandora, then it just runs into the same issue with Death Parade instead. I don't think rescheduling the new rewatches would be rejected? Or is the date important Also Heroic Age is LC3's rewatch first and mine second, I don't want to ask him to push it back right after we just officially announced it. Well there are special circumstances. Best to just talk about it to find a solution that works. if we are back then maybe you even need a day delay until word gets out and episodes watched. you might even be able to get the mods to post some messages for rewatches regarding the new plan. |
| https://www.theverge.com/2023/6/13/23759559/reddit-internal-memo-api-pricing-changes-steve-huffman Hi Snoos, Starting last night, about a thousand subreddits have gone private. We do anticipate many of them will come back by Wednesday, as many have said as much. While we knew this was coming, it is a challenge nevertheless and we have our work cut out for us. A number of Snoos have been working around the clock, adapting to infrastructure strains, engaging with communities, and responding to the myriad of issues related to this blackout. Thank you, team. We have not seen any significant revenue impact so far and we will continue to monitor. There’s a lot of noise with this one. Among the noisiest we’ve seen. Please know that our teams are on it, and like all blowups on Reddit, this one will pass as well. The most important things we can do right now are stay focused, adapt to challenges, and keep moving forward. We absolutely must ship what we said we would. The only long term solution is improving our product, and in the short term we have a few upcoming critical mod tool launches we need to nail. While the two biggest third-party apps, Apollo and RIF, along with a couple others, have said they plan to shut down at the end of the month, we are still in conversation with some of the others. And as I mentioned in my post last week, we will exempt accessibility-focused apps and so far have agreements with RedReader and Dystopia. I am sorry to say this, but please be mindful of wearing Reddit gear in public. Some folks are really upset, and we don’t want you to be the object of their frustrations. Again, we’ll get through it. Thank you to all of you for helping us do so. -spez I think we'll be without Reddit for awhile. #emiliaohdear |

| He had to know it would leak. You know there are still some old-school admins who are against this kind of thing and would leak this memo. In particular this paragraph reads like it was meant for public consumption: While the two biggest third-party apps, Apollo and RIF, along with a couple others, have said they plan to shut down at the end of the month, we are still in conversation with some of the others. And as I mentioned in my post last week, we will exempt accessibility-focused apps and so far have agreements with RedReader and Dystopia. So it's interesting to think about if he had considered the public response after the leak. Because once again this looks terrible, like the AMA. Either he really does think Reddit will be fine because the blackout largely ends tomorrow, or he's setting up for a compromise that still monetizes the API. Honestly the latter isn't a bad idea, but based on that AMA disaster the former seems more likely to me. |
| I'm just idk man. he's definitely an egotistical techbro, but he can't be that inept? |
| So the Discord(s) won I take it #yuitears |
| It's fine. We'll do great things here. With blackjack! And yuri! |
| in the end Discord is probably just shinier. I'll try to do some things here though |
| spez was right. This too shall pass. #mugipout I'll stay off until /r/anime comes back. |
Nameorsomething said: It seems like most subreddits are back up now. #mugiwait for r/anime to come back less than 6k now? |
subs private |
| It was kind of an odd choice to put a deadline on the blackout. An attempt to be reasonable to the admins sure, but it doesn't appear to have had much of an effect. I'm curious where that duration originated from. Perhaps a second blackout? I feel like the movement is now splintered, with each sub doing what they think is reasonable. The subs holding on are in a more tenuous position with others opening back up. |

Reddit CEO Steve Huffman said Thursday that he wants to bring an end to a user-led protest that has made large swaths of the influential website inaccessible this week. Huffman said he plans to institute rules changes that would allow Reddit users to vote out moderators who have overseen the protest, comparing them to a “landed gentry.” A multi-millionaire calls unpaid moderators landed gentry. Stage two of the blackout begins. And with everyone protesting gone, the votes will go spez's way. #mugiwait |

| Reddit has told the /r/apple mods the blackout is over. If a moderator team unanimously decides to stop moderating, we will invite new, active moderators to keep these spaces open and accessible to users. If there is no consensus, but at least one mod wants to keep the community going, we will respect their decisions and remove those who no longer want to moderate from the mod team.
