• Over 300 major subreddits are staying dark indefinitely.
• These subs will not budge until Reddit cedes to demands related to third-party API access.
• In a leaked memo, Reddit’s CEO shows no signs of backing down.

Later today, the sitewide Reddit protest will officially come to a close. This 48-hour event saw over 7,000 subreddits shut down in an attempt to send a message to Reddit executives about their controversial decision to change the way third-party apps can access Reddit’s APIs. By tomorrow morning, a good chunk of these forums will be back to running as usual.

However, a subset of those forums will not reopen. As of this writing, over 300 subreddits are staying dark indefinitely. That number is going up every minute. These subs will continue to protest the changes until Reddit CEO Steve Huffman agrees to meet their demands.
