How is reddit post protest, did it really win over protesters? Did the ones who left make a dent? Or like all things before, did it ultimately do nothing?

This is honestly my sentiment as well. I spent over a decade on Reddit practically every single day. Apollo was my first “pick up” app every morning and I’d average like 14 hours on it every week. I’d even set limits for how long I could be on it because I would spend so much time on Reddit. It’s going to take a while to fully break the addiction.

With Apollo gone, wedwef is a lovely replacement for Lemmy, but you’re right; it’s not the same, and I do still creep over to Reddit (via Safari, f—k their app) from time to time to check on the state of things and the smaller communities that will be slower to become “Lemmified”.
