Yeah, people going “hurr durr the protests don’t matter” aren’t seeing the bigger picture. True, the protests were ineffective at best in changing Spez’s mind, but the thing they’re protesting will end up destroying Reddit because crippling mod tools is going to cause spam to explode on the platform.
Yeah, I had some suspicions on a few subreddits where suddenly the Spez Defense Force was out en masse to shit on normal users & moderators alike. SubredditDrama as a specific example felt super off compared to the vibe there I was used to as a long time lurker, like you’re telling me the most upvoted comments on like every post are suddenly all people whining about the protests and how entitled moderators are, not users enjoying the popcorn and chaos? Hmmmm.
The government in my country are going to collapse, things what live under rocks know it, and it’s basically the same thing. They have managed to dilute themselves into believing that they’re all right that they’re fine that they don’t need to change anything that they will succeed.
Basically everyone else is watching from the sidelines, with popcorn, because we all given up trying to convince them to change.
This was my last comments on reddit. We aren’t just protesting the changes because we support 3rd party and mods - we protest so the community can stay there.

I believe 90% of those “hurr durrs” were bots by Spez trying to psyops the protests and failing like the dipship that he is.
