@RedditGoneWild understandable. I don't believe that the protest would actually do something to #reddit itself either. But I think there are a lot of people that don't know about the issue and we should let them know about it by supporting the protest or at least mentioning it. And let them decide their stance. They might as well join the #fediverse after that.
I think you underestimate the downside and disruption here.
It's not merely letting people know so that they can decide their own stance. Taking down communications platforms as a strategy for communicating is much more actively shoving things into peoples' faces than you frame it... and also a bit absurd?
Anyway, the might as well stay on the platform that gives them more value. For so many that won't be Fediverse, and the disruption will have been just imposition and annoyance by people with an uninteresting cause to push.
