Spez, and Reddit as a whole is basically counting on most subreddits opening back up tomorrow after the 48-hour period.
Really hope that mods can hold out for longer, make them really panic.

I’m not surprised that Fidelity is losing faith in Reddit. The way Steve completely alienated the whole community, well he’s basically shooting himself in the foot.
Also he admitted they don’t make money and said they need to be profit driven til they do.
To me that says he’s not sure this will actually make Reddit profitable; so looking at it from a detached, “I just care about the money” perspective I’d be really nervous about investing in Reddit. Feels like Spez would just light it all on fire.
They really need someone competent at the helm.
Competence runs a distant second to “trustable” at this point. Spez has shown he can’t be trusted.
Wait until he starts retroactively editing posts and/or deleting and shadowbanning against mutinous mods. I really hope the blackout keeps rolling a week or two and they see their ad rev and user impressions tank.
Spez already said they aren’t changing their minds. And by the time the realize they might want to, it’s going to be too late.
