Anti-mod brigading going on within reddit?
I've been seeing a lot of pro-reddit, anti-mod comments, despite tens of thousands of up votes on Reddit blackout posts. Pro-reddit comments also have a ton of gold for some reason.
Is reddit trying to change the narrative towards hating on mods for "ruining everything" before they try and remove them?

I suspect there's also sampling bias. The types who are still using reddit are not the same who were heavily in support of the blackouts.
I wonder how much will change with so many long time active users leaving Reddit. I've been very active for 15 years on Reddit, deleted thousands of posts and even more comments and won't be returning. I know there are a lot of people like me who are finally done with the site. Is it just going to go more downhill than it already has?
Those that stay probably weren't aware of what they were missing out on.
Hoping that those that leave find themselves a cozy place here on Lemmy.
Or kbin! Or Fedia! Or any of the platforms. That's the beauty, they're all correct choices and (to an extent) all open to any user.
I'm seeing this a lot in the stickies for reopened subs discussing whether they want to continue the blackout. Last week they all wanted to protest, this week they don't want it anymore and prefer the sub to stay up. It's likely a different subset of people commenting.
