I assume someone’s deleting critical news articles there, or having bot armies downvote them. On Kbin and Lemmy and Squabbles, even on Google News, I see Reddit’s woes front and center.

What are you talking about. Go to global /r/popular, “Reddit is in crisis as prominent moderators loudly protest the company’s treatment of developers” is 6th on the front page right now. Did you just post this without checking what you were typing or what
I just checked /r/All and /r/Popular and after scrolling the whole first page I have 1 porn post on /r/interestingasfuck and a /r/technology post talking about the hacker blackmail event. So I am seeing two relating to the protest as of now.
However, I scrolled a few pages on /r/Popular and am not seeing the post you’re referring to. It is ~15 minutes later as I’m replying to your comment, so maybe that particular thread is gone?
Edit: I did just see a /r/memes post that references the protest too on /r/Popular I missed earlier.
I’ve just rechecked and it’s now fallen off front page - it was this: https://old.reddit.com/r/nottheonion/comments/14coqxp/reddit_is_in_crisis_as_prominent_moderators/
It was “23 hours old” when I posted that comment earlier, it’s now “1 day old”, so I assume it dropped down in the rankings because of that. But it was on the front page when this post was made
