Reddit is redirecting some impressions away from existing communities, and some advertisers are pausing campaigns.

Dabaghi notes this pause will be shorter than more prolonged advertiser boycotts on Twitter and Meta. Still, Reddit has been working on its relationships with advertisers, and any accumulated goodwill could be diminished if the precarious situation continues.

Let's hope the mods of the larger subs stay the course

1k subs thus far have committed to staying dark indefinitely. Hopefully this news spurs more to join on.

According to Reddark, 6.6k subreddits (out of over 8k) are still dark. We'll have to see what the numbers look like in 16 hours or so once America wakes up and gets off work.

Still over 6k as of noon (east cost). 13 more hours to go but definitely have hope!
