**EDIT: GO DM MODS OF YOUR FAVORITE SUBREDDITS AND POLITELY ASK ABOUT MIGRATION!: something as simple as "Hey, I love this community but I no longer use reddit, will you guys be making a community on Kbin or other alternatives? Let me know please, thanks." will work!! We need more voices encouraging migration!**...
Well that went just as I expected it to. The admins are still the admins. They’re the top of the power totem and that’s that.
Honestly this protest’s only purpose shouldve be to raise awareness of alternatives and tell people “were leaving Reddit, and this is where we’re going” while we still can. Because Reddit is private property, and therefore will always be subject to the whims of its admins - regardless of how people believe it should be run of if people think it should tolerate protesting against the platform on the platform.
Everyone should’ve been aware that this protest could only have been temporary.
Sure we reminded them of the power we possess, but they’ve essentially reminded us that they possess more, and can remove that power regardless of how the community feels. Admins are and have always been at the top.
