True. People just see this one 48 hour blackout and telling everyone that not that much people will leave reddit. Yeah not that much, if you just see this one incident. We still have the D-Day of 30th June, and subsequent waves if reddit CEOs decided to fuck things further. We just have to wait.

This is just my personal opinion. The 2 day blackout for me, never meant for people to pack their bags and leave Reddit entirely. It’s not a very easy task to do, and honestly, there is still lots of contents and friends back in reddit. Reddit can be sure that lots of people will simply come back, and spez will grinning while working his way to his beloved IPO.

However, the 2 day blackout has opened a new world of alternatives to Reddit. Now people know other places and other communities that can replace Reddit as a whole. Yes, Reddit will still be an influential website. Yes, Reddit will still be money driven. Yes, spez will not budge. But we can.

To me, Reddit will not crash, burn and crushed to ash. But rather, it’s either went the FB way, relying to lots of ads and older demographics to sustain, or simply becoming Myspace or Digg, a distant memory that’s only in name.

Just my 1/2 cents.

Agreed. Honestly, if I want a FB-like Reddit, fuck that, I’ll going to Facebook.

Enshittification sucks I would say.

you don’t mention the copious, copious amounts of ads and sponsored contents

wow thanks reddit, you are more and more Facebook-like now, congratulations.

when even NSFW subs going protesting you know reddit done a big fuckup

Well. It’s his right then.

It’s also our right to walk out of the crumbling house. Unlike FB and Twitter which still has core (and over reaching) followers that still remain there, Reddit may face a slow burning death.

Oh well, it’s a fun ride. Goodbye to the communities and hobbyists.

Meta …nope nope nope nope nope nope nope nope nope nope nope nope nope nope nope nope

I’m only on Facebook just because of family and some IRL friends. My instagram is pretty much dead. And I would not going to join yet another Meta platform seeing how a cesspool Facebook is now.
