Of course, the two day blackout will not have huge revenue impact, but two week one will. And if it goes on beyond that, those who will have the most to lose will blink (i.e. Spez and investors)

If Spez doesn't blink, the investors will make him.

I don't think he's' going to win this one without making concession.

I do hope the mods have the balls to continue the blackout as long as it takes. This couple days is a joke. A longer strike will be noticed, especially by would be IPO investors. As it is, if this IPOs, I’ll be selling short via put options on this. Management is incompetent. Will not succeed with this anti visionary leadership.

I wonder what Reddit's owner (Advance Media / Condé Nast) think of all this. I assume there is a point where (from Advance's POV) the API changes hurt the IPO more than they help. There may also be a point where having (Reddit co-founder) Huffman as CEO is more of a hindrance than a benefit.

Note that while Advance Media is still a large shareholder, they haven't been the majority shareholder since some point in 2017-2019 as they got diluted by various investment waves

I think that point was 5-10 days ago.

I wouldn't say it takes balls to not click the "public" button and instead touch grass. Everyone will be just fine without their feed crank fix.

If anything, the mods are getting a break from their stressful lives as Reddit mods.
