I fully supported the protests by major subreddits. My problem was that a lot of the smaller subs couldn't see the forest for the trees and, ostensibly for the sake of the survival of Reddit, destroyed themselves. The subreddit that gets five hundred posts per day bounces right back after two days offline. The niche sub that gets about ten posts per day, however, doesn't survive being shut down for two weeks. A lot of the mods seemed to be fine with the destruction of their communities as long as it was them who got to pull the trigger and not the admins.
