r/Crunchyroll is back after "going dark" for a little over 48 hours, as we joined in on the protest against Reddit's announced API changed along with thousands of other subreddits. But the question now is... what do we do from here?

The community and the moderators of this subreddit agreed to going private for a couple days, so it's only right that we continue to ponder together what the best course of action is now. Many subreddits are considering going private indefinitely or at least for a bit longer through a vote with their communities, which we think is best to do as well.

Please vote for what you think we should do:

• Remain public: We won't go restricted or private anymore, ending our protesting activities with this subreddit.

• Go private for a week: We would extend our "going dark" period to another week for the protest, and come back to public immediately after.

• Go private indefinitely: We would go private until Reddit stops what they're doing in regards to the API changes. This means that the subreddit will not be accessible at all going forward for an unknown period of time. If this option wins the poll, all moderators would have to agree to that or to have the subreddit restricted (public, but no posting). If neither could be agreed on, we'll fall back on "going dark" for a week at most.

Please comment your thoughts and opinions on what we should do here as well. Go to r/Save3rdPartyApps and r/ModCoord for more information on what is going on. Us mods will continue to discuss how to approach things as they come. This poll should end on Monday, June 19, 2023, and if one of the options to go private wins, we will announce when that will happen just like before.
