Reddit Blackout Plans are really heating up... (beehaw.org)

I just saw this post over on r/modcoord which is basically a massive list of subreddits participating in the blackout protest. If I'm being honest I haven't seen this much anger and coordinated frustration since the era right before the digg exodus.

Assuming more and more subreddits join in, it's going to send a pretty massive message to the users who interact with a blacked out subreddit. Then I'm trying to imagine what happens if after a massive coordinated blackout, Reddit continue on the current trajectory. Is Lemmy even prepared to handle the amount of potential incoming traffic that API closure could lead to? It's absolutely bonkers to me that the Reddit team might just stay the course....
