In this image from video provided by the House Financial Services Committee, Steve Huffman, chief executive officer and co-founder of Reddit, testifies during a virtual hearing on GameStop in Washington, Thursday, Feb. 18, 2021. If you hopped on Reddit to scroll through your favorite forums this week, you may have encountered "private" or "restricted" messages.
As of Friday, more than 4,000 subreddits were still participating in the blackout -- including communities with tens of millions of subscribers like r/music and r/videos -- according to a tracker and live Twitch stream of the boycott. Reddit denies that it is removing moderators for protesting, asserting that it is simply enforcing its code of conduct.
Reddit has pushed back on some of these concerns, saying that 93% of moderator actions are currently taken through desktop and native Reddit apps. Huffman has pushed back on that estimate and Reddit argues that the upcoming fees for high usage third-party apps -- which stand at a rate of 24 cents for 1,000 API calls -- is reasonable.
