On an internal staff email the CEO stated that the blackout hasn’t (yet) had “significant revenue impact” [0].
If REVENUE IMPACT is their measure, focus efforts there.
- Get a together a list of major sponsors to target
- Encourage sponsors to come out in solidarity and to pause sponsorship until things are resolved with the community
- make it easy for sponsors to look like good guys and ride the wave “we support the reddit community” badges etc
- encourage reddit hood subscribers to pause their memberships
Basically next step translate the stop work to have more immediate revenue impact
What else could affect their revenues?
I asked this exact question in an Ask HN earlier today[1].
