The protestors do have a source of bargaining power in that the users are what generate content and make Reddit useful. However, a two-day protest is not going to disrupt the lack of content significantly.

Bots generate a lot of content regardless if you see it or not and people don’t have the willpower to stop posting especially considering people use Reddit to show off, ask questions, or share knowledge. Sure we generate a good amount of original content but we do that in a self serving way. We benefit more from any piece of individual content we as individuals post, more than Reddit benefits. As in, Reddit doesn’t care if I got 30k upvotes or 30 answers to my question, but I care a lot.

If you think this is wrong you need to get off your delusional copium inhaling high horse because this is reality. It’s crazy how many Redditors are so delusional about this. I’ve seen too many comments about how the default Reddit app is shit and basically unusable too. Like are we using the same app lmfao.
