"They don't have the right to organize and decide on collective action" just reads like, "I'm entitled to not be inconvenienced by things I don't care about"
/shrug, just my two cents.
It seems a better solution would be for them to just leave, and hand over the subs to people who have no issue with the API changes and are happy to continue to moderate.
I mean, if their protest works I'm all for it, but I suspect it won't, and the communities that want to keep on communing don't deserve to die because mods made a unilateral choice for everybody.
Why is it other peoples responsibility to not inconvenience you?
Inconvenience is a desired feature of the protest, but not of Reddit - at least not to this extent.

I never claimed it was. But if people are leaving to Lemmy, then they should leave the subs to people that are fine staying on Reddit. Ultimately, they don't own the subs, Reddit does, and if Reddit is willing to reassign them, I don't see a problem with that.
Well, not everyone involved right? If I understand correctly, just the people who don't care about the people affected by the API cost increase.
