We have not seen any significant revenue impact so far and we will continue to monitor.
There’s your answer on how it’s affecting reddit. May be it’s spez just bluffing, but I hope this is a wake up call for the two day blackout subs and they do it indefinitely.
Two days isn’t significant enough to register as a real change. Especially since I assume most advertisers have ongoing contracts based on longer periods.
If you want to see an actual revenue impact, the blackout has to go long enough that advertisers have time to start scaling back or even withdrawing from the platform.
If everyone who’s not using reddit was already using a 3P ad free app, it’s possible they’re saving money on bandwidth while still serving the same number of ads to the remainder who are still getting on
Well, considering the phone calls with the apollo dev, his trustworthiness is already shot. I would be very surprised if this didn’t affect revenue seeing how there’s thousands of people not buying awards now. That’s not even getting into ad views.

Idk how this is possible either, almost every sub I subscribe to is black, why would that not impact rev?
