The blackout is starting to have a financial impact on Reddit, but we must stay dark!

If the performance weakness continues for a week or two, the agency would start recommending decreasing spend with Reddit or directing it to other platforms.
After the blackout, we will be closely monitoring user behavior on Reddit and guide clients when we can unpause,” said Freddy Dabaghi, managing director at Stagwell-backed Crispin Porter Bogusky, which has asked clients to stop campaigns, depending on their client goals.

Imagine after the 3rd party apps are killed!
Even if Reddit does negotiate manageable rates for "non profit" 3rd party apps (lol), wait until Reddit users figure out they still can't access NSFW content except from the Reddit official app and the new Reddit layout. Break out the popcorn.
redditors around the world pounding their fists on tables
let us jerk, let us jerk!
I truly never realized how many people used Reddit for porn until this happened
probably a good 40/50 percent of reddit user use it only for corn lmao
Nebraska and Iowa lust intensifies.
Yeah, sway in the wind just like that. You know what I like.
Don’t forget Illinois! We lead the nation some years in… corn
Your governors certainly enjoy giving it to the people
The internet is for corn!
Sorry, Kate!
I masticate!
Ooh show me your kernel.
Linux users salivate
?
I don't care if they fix all of that. I don't care about nsfw so it's no motivator but even if they offered to pay me I wouldn't go back. Not worth the consequences.
The main draw was that people using 3rd party apps didn't see (reddit's) ads. If 10% of apollo's users go to the official app, that is 10% that are seeing ads were they didn't before.
Bit of a catch-22, because reddit is also counting all those 3rd-party users as part of their userbase when talking about how many users they have. These 3rd party app users also generate some of the content that draws undiscerning users to open reddit and view ads on the way.
Yupp, bit of a leopards ate my face moment! Is their a community for that on here yet btw?
