seems unlikely (to me) that this would be intentional from reddit’s side. You’d think they would be VERY interested to see how this really impacts site traffic and how much “protest” they can absorb before taking administrative action against mods/subreddits.

I mean, it kinda is, usage must have dropped significantly
It creates a data hole so investors can’t see the impact?
That’s plausible. But while reddit may be that dumb, investors sure aren’t.
Investors would be more upset about the downtime, it’s not like investors wouldn’t be aware of the drama.
