I agree, although the process of replacing mods will be pretty messy. You might have to do that for 1000’s of subs. A reddit employee is going to go through each one, kick off the old mods, set it to public, and recruit new mods? That’s a long winded process to do it at scale.
I think in reality there won’t be that many subs that stay dark permanently, but even if a handful of bigger subs hold out, it will be a shitshow.
Most of the participating subreddits have said they’ll continue the blackout if needed.

Reddit won’t really be the same again…
