The attempts at indefinite blackouts could have more impact than we expect, even if admins intervene and reopen them with new mods. They're doing this very publicly and with overwhelming support from their communities, so the "takeovers" would just make it look even worse for Reddit.

That will not change Reddit's mind about their plans, but it could convince more users to move on to greener pastures (Lemmy or otherwise)
