Can you link any of those polls? I saw a lot of polls with a vast majority voting for the initial blackout but the tone of the response to this indefinite blackout feels way different.

It's not universal, but generally people seem to be in favor of keeping the pressure on Reddit this way.

  Only today did I spot any poll in the ones I visit regularly, and they voted to stay open for even the initial blackout. Seems like it was mostly mod decisions in the first place.

  > I saw a lot of polls with a vast majority voting for the initial blackout but the tone of the response to this indefinite blackout feels way different. It's selection bias. The average user didn't care or know about the initial blackout. Now that they're affected, they're more likely to vote in these polls.

As they should. As far as I can see, the second they ban the third party services, they will start pushing ads, hard. You'll be stuck with their official app and their website will use anti ad-blocking tech like YT is testing right now. So at the end, it's all about getting more money on the back of the community.
