    but that doesn’t change the fact that these actions are unprecedented and a huge betrayal of trust, and there’s nothing wrong with people (especially those that invested a lot of time and effort into building the site into what it is today) being upset at reddit for this.

    I agree with you.

    I had been using Reddit for a long time, so I understand.

    I don’t think the blackout was productive: it was never going to change their minds, they just didn’t want to have give moderators the boot in the end.

      Nah, it didn’t have to end like that. There was another way they could have played it, but they chose not to. There’s no reason to act as if it was inevitable.
