There never were that many people yelling for a blackout or complaining in general. Fact simply is, that the average Reddit User doesn’t care about it, since it doesn’t affect them directly. If we throw in all mods, the 3rd party app users and all the people that care, we don’t even reach 10% of Reddits userbase.
They had a drop of about 30% during the blackout which is already a lot more than expected, but that’s mainly because subs are closed and people can’t post.
I never meant to imply that there were a lot of people who were demanding the black. I meant that a large portion of the small group demanding the blackout still used reddit during the protests. At least that was my experience. It could have just been the profiles that I’ve seen or confirmation bias or something like that. Apologies for the confusion.
