#2Might need some place to see which big subreddits are NOT participating

#3Pissing off the people doing thankless free labor to keep your subreddits moderated and site functional seems like a poor choice. This is going to be quite an event when it kicks off Monday.

I used to moderate a lot of large subreddits back in the day, and don't understand why the mods don't just shut them down indefinitely, until reddit capitulates.
What, I won't be doing a bunch of free labor for a multimillion dollar company while being called a dictator all day? Yes please!
Reddit would probably have to step in and start removing moderators, digging their hole even deeper.

Depending on the outcome of the AMA with spez tomorrow [1], and how much it ends up inflaming the situation, that may well happen.

Oh wow, I didn't know about an AMA. I need to get some popcorn.

#7Doesn't seem to load?

#8It would be cool with a toggle to show subreddits going dark indefinitely and/or already dark, to see who isn't just following the general blackout.

#10I tallied (roughly) the number of subscriber accounts, across all these reddits. It's around 1 billion. Obviously, it's not conservative as many will have subscribed to multiple. But, I see MAU (monthly active users) is about 1b. So, this is huge.
EDIT: Seems the source for MAU I found was way high, making this potentially even bigger. Every other source I've found is 400-500m range for MAU on reddit (as another pointed out).
