The last major holdouts in the protest against Reddit’s API pricing relented, abandoning the so-called “John Oliver rules” which only allowed posts featuring the TV host. It's the official end of the battle. The Reddit protest is over, and Reddit won.
That’s kinda what happens when you say “we’re gonna protest for 2 whole days then go back to normal” lol. All Reddit execs and admins had to do was sit on their hands for 2 days and not say anything.
It’s hilarious that whoever came up with the 2 day blackout thing thought that would make any bit of difference.

I always wondered if the 2 day thing was planted by Reddit itself. When you’re organizing a protest against a site on that very site itself, can you trust anything you read there?
