Over 50% isn't too bad at this point in the game. We'll see if it drops lower over/after the weekend, but that is still a significant portion of subreddits, which are the only thing that generates content for reddit. I don't this this will actually do anything, and I am done with reddit now. I never felt attached to it, and I have found active communities on lemmy for most of my subs, and the community is way better here. I don't need reddit anymore.

Plus the top dozen subs only make up like a few percentage points of the ones that pledged to blackout. So if those are still out then it's still crippling. Like pics, funny, videos, etc
