The VergeHere’s the note Reddit sent to moderators threatening them if they don’t reopen - https://www.theverge.com/2023/6/16/23763538/reddit-blackout-api-protest-mod-replacement-threat
joey castilloTruly cursed vibes in the city today. These are straight out of the camera, and true to what the eye saw; lab’s never looked more haunted.
Chance MillerPretty happy with how this story turned out. Steve Huffman should immediately step down and hand over the reins to someone even marginally more competent than he is.
Make sure to read all the way through to the “9to5Mac's Take" at the bottom.
"Reddit's CEO really wants you to know that he doesn't care about your feedback” https://9to5mac.com/2023/06/15/reddit-blackout-third-party-apps/
Dan GillmorAfter Reddit's beyond-arrogant CEO dismissed the subreddit blackout as just posturing, moderators of discussions extended the blackout. This is the only sensible response to the company's contempt.

Moderators of many Reddit communities are pledging to keep their subreddits private or restricted indefinitely. In response to a Tuesday post on the r/ModCoord subreddit, users are chiming in to say that their subreddits will remain dark past Wednesday.
