Now that the two day shutting down of many thousands of subreddits is over, what is happening now? How many are remaining closed? Are others just going back to normal? What is the prospects of any significant change happening now?

I've set my pihole to reject reddit.com and I'm committed to using Lemmy, but I do miss the old Reddit.

I don't think he cares whether we stay or leave as long as the revenue stream to Reddit is uninterrupted. But he's not a savvy businessman nor a good leader.

All the negative coverage of the Blackout - it was global, it was in general media, it was in tech media, it was in business media - will impact that revenue at some point.

Weak leadership isn't supported by the financial community when IPOs are floated, either and u/spez hasn't actually accomplished anything (like being profitable) yet.
