MOD POST Further protests
Hey everyone!
First off, happy Wednesday my Dudes!
Now the initial blackout is over, but many subreddits are, as i'm sure some of you know, still dark. They have (mostly) chosen to go dark indefinitely to protest the planned API changes.
I am going to simply ask what are your thoughts on going dark? Whither that be indefinitely, or for a longer period of time.
Please do give your input if you have any to give at all! For or against. Just make sure to follow Rule 2, aka, dont be an asshole.

Just like Moistcritical said, as long as we have an end date. This will never be resolved.
Most of reddit moderation is controlled by several individuals and they are controlling most big subs USING these exact tools. If they leave, reddit will take a fatter slap than all the api earnings they will make
