As some subreddits continue blackouts to protest Reddit’s plans to charge high prices for its API, Reddit has informed the moderators of those subreddits that it has plans to replace resistant moderation teams to keep spaces “open and accessible to users.”
Edit, there seems to be conflicting reporting on this issue:
While the company does “respect the community’s right to protest” and pledges that it won’t force communities to reopen, Reddit also suggests there’s no need for that.

Alright! Time to Boaty McBoatface this thing.
I hate to sail on that old hellsite
Leave her Johnny leave her
The algo’s fucked and the app is shite
And it’s time for us to leave her
How?
Either vote in our own orrrr vote in people who will just destroy the sub.
Yarp. Time to start blasting holes in the hull.
