The private subreddits went from 8400+ to now being back to 6900ish today due to the 2 day "protest" time being up.
Seems like most of the reddit mods couldn't touch grass for more than the allotted protest time, though I'm sure some subreddits go public for a good reason like asking their community whether they should go private indefinitely and all that...
Let's hope the number will go back up again tomorrow, if not then I guess reddit had a reason to not worry about this "protest".
I know people disagree on what to do, but I overwrote my comments and deleted my posts yesterday, at least what I could in open subs. I no longer agree with Reddit possibly profiting from my content. I will check again in case any subs opened back up.
I have also been commenting an explanation of the fediverse and urging people to move to Lemmy. Mostly fine, though I received an instant permaban in /r/france, which raised an eyebrow given their rabble-rousing over Reddit's actions.
