"Redditors are going to reddit" until they switch to Lemmy.
A Reddit spokesperson declined to comment about this year’s edition of r/Place, telling Polygon via email “redditors are going to reddit.”
Primary takeaway from the whole "protest" and why it isn't going to change anything.
It's a spokesperson statement, not full reality
Exactly, if you take a spokesperson’s opinion for fact, lead would still be in gasoline and kids could vape in class.
But we are not redditors anymore.
We're a minority.
They are talking about the people who participated in that place thing, and they were by definition all redditors.
That’s the first decent bit of PR from Reddit in a looong time.
Reddit realized that they don't even have to try to hide the messaging. Their audience will stay, and think that they're making a difference by saying Fuck Spez everywhere
Which.. I’m now starting to realize is fine. It’s just not for me anymore.
I'll be curious to see how much of an impact this has really made when someone gets around to publishing the metrics.
I would like to hope that Reddit has take a significant traffic hit due this whole API bullshit, but I honestly wouldn't be all suprised if it was less than 10%.
But we will wait and see.
people still on reddit just like to suffer, when life give you lemons, make lemminade
I still browse Reddit, but only when I finish my Lemmy content lol.
It helps because I can still use Sync for Reddit with the Revanced workaround.
well, at least they're not making a lemon party.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
