  • Popular subreddit r/Android will stay dark for a few extra days.
  • The site is committing to staying private until June 20, 2023, at 8:00 PM ET.
  • Between now and then, the moderators will figure out what the long-term strategy should be.

Today we will see the bulk of the Reddit protest wind down. In a few hours, a good chunk of the protesting subreddits will come back online for all. However, a prominent few — including some with tens of millions of subscribers — will stay dark indefinitely. These subreddits will remain down until Reddit concedes to demands related to keeping third-party apps alive.

Here at Android Authority, we are most concerned about one of the most popular subreddits in our industry: r/Android. We had the opportunity to speak with some of the subreddit’s moderators, who have spent the bulk of the day discussing what steps to take for the forum.
