I'm sure this one day boycott will be just as effective as the others were.

If you want results you need to put in time and have a target. Conservatives didn't boycott beer, they boycotted Bud Light. They didn't do it for a day, they did it until Bud Light gave up. Say what you will about the "why" of it, but it was effective.

I posted another comment but they are effective if strong enough. If their metrics crash today it will worry them. Later if it can be followed up by two days, three, a week. Its a message. There are some more targeted ones on the calendar to. Might have actually been more effective for the artist to do a remember one yesterday but then again its nice to do a solidarity one today. We shall see how much people care to send a message or not.

You're assuming anybody outside of Lemmy even knows about this. I haven't seen any indication of that.

I have, I received texts from friends and family about this protest that don't even know what the fediverse is.
