    “The blackout didn’t affect us at all.”

    “If you don’t unblackout we’re going to start removing moderators and taking over subreddits.”

    I think, maybe, the blackout hurt them. If it goes on for longer then ad buyers will shift their money to other platforms.

      My guess is that this was the plan all along - move fast so mods are forced to pick a side and sadly I think many will stick with reddit.
