Honestly I am surprised.

I didn’t expect much, but I expected more than this quite frankly.

The “key facts” thing linked in the article is hilarious…

As of Thursday, June 15, more than 80% of our top 5,000 communities (by DAU) are open), and we expect this to continue. …

• r/nottheonion is asking users to vote, including a fun option that encourages people to take Tuesdays off

they voted to keep it closed.

Which makes this article even more interesting: they want to give users the possibility of voting mods out to put an end to the strike; and I genuinely hope that that backfires.

Especially because it’s unclear how they’d give users the ability to vote on that, without it ending in a shitshow, considering the size of the platform…

Users can block those on desktop without issue. On mobile it’s a bit harder so most people I know don’t even if they use ublock or something on their PCs/laptops (though that is of course only anecdotal).

So if anything if that was the issue they should’ve shut off support for the desktop version LOL /s
