Some of the planned blackouts will be temporary, others plan to shut their subreddits down indefinitely in protest.

    I’m in the same boat as you in regards to Reddit; there are certainly some niche places that I will miss but there are already good alternatives growing. I’m taking this opportunity to both re-evaluate how I engage with the internet and take the time to choose communities that better align with my values.

      Yeah I’m planning to just buy extra server space and start my own instance. I’d love to see the fediverse grow

      I can’t agree more. I sincerely hope this lasts. Whatever happens, though, I don’t think I’ll be leaving. Regardless of what happens to reddit.
