for some reason I just couldn't get automod to remove everything without an author tag so here is what finally ended up working... thanks chatgpt
Also there's four spaces before "name"
---
# Filter all posts and comments for reddit blackout
type: any
author:
name (regex, includes): '[a-zA-Z]'
action: remove
message_subject: "Post removed"
message: "/r/ is down for the Reddit Blackout"
The switch was pulled. The message in private should hit everyone a bit differently.
Message:
If Reddit was a restaurant third party apps are franchises. We can get a burger from Reddit directly or from a franchise. The official Reddit location is at the top of a cliff. Disabled people can't get there. Reddit is charging franchise fees so high nobody else can afford to offer burgers.
We, with thousands of other subreddits, have gone dark for 48 hours. We will be back on June 14.
Our Discord server remains open.
Thank you for understanding; app so bad, vision required to go dark. Let that SINK IN!
Also from a post before we went offline by a user:
Message from a user of r/blind u/leftAI to everyone:
Subject:
It’s weird actually feeling seen amidst this Reddit blackout Message: Pun unintended. Even though this death of Reddit apps debacle is so frustrating for us, I’ve never seen so many people actually say they care about accessibility for blind and low vision folk. Even if it’s just an argument people are using to help the cause, it’s still nice. Anyway, sighted people - add alt text to your images.
