Right. RIP Reddit. Can you remind me what that accomplished?

I'm not commenting on whether the protests worked. Just on whether they were hard to organise.

Reddit moderators are unpaid volunteers. They lose exactly $0 if they "strike". The stakes are extremely low in comparison to pulling apps from the App Store.

And there are only 75,000 Reddit moderators in total. That's vastly smaller than the number of App Store developers.
