Reddit Protests Continue to Shake Up Platform

Thousands of subreddits, including some with over 20 million subscribers, remain dark as user protests against Reddit's plan to charge new fees to access its content enter their third week. Reddit CEO Steve Huffman said he regretted that developers were surprised by the company's pricing changes and wished he had been more upfront about how the changes would affect them. Huffman added that the community revolt was a part of what made Reddit Reddit and said he and his team planned to continue engaging with top moderators who were upset with the changes.
