They actually are bringing awareness to the issue in a direct way by not allowing new submissions, and making posts like this to bring awareness to the situation. I consider what they're doing a net good.
Jokes aside, I think AITA is blocking new submissions.
Certainly the last post on the sub is from a mod describing the blackout, which was published 9 hours ago.
So, they might have decided to stay public for exposure to the issue. But there is no new content flowing
Never understand why r/games decided against, both their higher subreddit and lower subreddit did it. Also, Xbox didn't and I tried to get them too. Love you Xbox, but screw your subreddit

Ngl it's kinda funny that r/AmITheAsshole didn't go dark.
YTA!

It's in restricted mode. Not fully private but they're not taking new submissions at least.
I am curious about why it's showing in red though. I don't see that with other restricted subs.

"AITA for not making my subreddit private?"

It became that which it always feared: the asshole

Instead of going private, they only restricted posting to mod-only

It turns out they were the asshole all along.

Yes, yes you are.

I like the way r/dankmemes did it most, they only allow API jokes. I think attention is more important than less engagement for reddit.

r/dankmemes is one of the reddit meme subreddits of all time
