Reddit doesn’t have to close in order for this blackout to be successful.
Myspace is still alive but not relevant.
I think the best-case scenerio is that the blackout, combined with 3rd party apps shutting down will cause a partial migration to fediverse-based solutions.
As long as the communities get a kickstart then it will change the companies trajectory.

I’m hoping it’ll just kinda fracture people into their preferred online homebases, opening up opportunities to fool around everywhere.
Reddit gradually went from “The Front Page of the Internet” to “Basically the Entire Internet” for a lot of us and it doesn’t need to remain that way.
