    Most redditors who aren’t willing to bend over and take whatever Spez wants to shove into their asses have already switched to Lemmy.

    We’ll get a few stragglers, but I wouldn’t expect much of a reaction at this point.

      Today? Maybe a few. A week, a month, a year from now? Reddit is going to get worse. People will leave.

      Looking at Twitter it’s clear some folks will never leave no matter how bad it gets, but plenty of folks will leave.

    Why would they revolt? I’d assume most of the people that cared enough to take the revolt over killing third party apps and all that have left or at least minimized their Reddit use. So that leaves bots, the apathetic, and niche community users who might complain but aren’t going anywhere.

    the unruly userbase that largely rolled over and continued used reddit after its API changes with all but a meagre protest? Yeah im sure they’ll be fine.

      Ooh. Imagine the content of the investor calls if there is another blackout.

      There would no longer be any hesitation to ban or censor everybody involved.
