As an effect of the recent Reddit blackout, the company is now surrounded by disappointed investors and community. I predict that Reddit may end up facing the same fate as Tumblr: being sold to another company. Only time will tell what the future holds for Reddit, but one thing is for sure - the protest will leave a lasting impact on the platform and its users.

I just hope many still stay offline for a longer time to protest. I don't think 2 days will be enough. A but if damage is done but if there will be no 3rd party apps I'm out. I'd pay for Reddit Premium if that would give me a personal API or something

A lot of users are willing to pay for an ad free personalized experience, but this seems not to be enough for reddit.

A fediverse "Reddit" will not spontaneously exist overnight but will be the best long term solution, I'm not sure the current implementations are Product Market Fit enough.

edit: grammar

Agreed. But it seems likely that the blackout will soon be extended since alot of people on YouTube advocated it.
