Probably how a large amount of the subreddits participating in the blackout came back in a measly two days. Like Louis Rossmann said in his video describing the reddit api situation, all they see is that we'll put up with their bullshit 363 days a year...

maybe if all subreddits participating went dark or posted meaningless content (white squares,etc) there might have been a bigger inpact.

A lot of us moved to other platforms like Lemmy though, so I wouldn't say it was a complete failure.
