I don’t mean to be pessimistic, bit since most subreddits are only going dark for a couple days, the site will basically be back to normal soon. I wonder how many users here are only here because of temporary outrage and not because they actually prefer Lemmy. I’m curious about people’s outlook on this situation.
I feel like that will have more impact than a portion of the subreddits going dark for a few days. People will wait out the protest, and can go back to browsing Reddit again. They have to change something in their flow if they wanna keep using Reddit on their phone, and it’s gonna change their experience.
I’m using whatever app/platform can provide in terms of usability and content. Once Boost (or any other third party client) stops working, I’ll probably stop using Reddit too.
