I wanted to see how many redditors decided to quit or not. But the result shows a lot of them are not quitting reddit. Some of them did not know about the blackout situation.
Ignore the discord stuff because someone answered my problem (I'm going to miss reddit for this). It hurts looking at it because I really like the rune factory community there. ๐ข๐

The thought that people would unitedly leave Reddit was delusional.
I expected that only a small portion of people would really leave. I think there will be another small wave of leaving people when the 3rd party apps stop working.
But reality is: most humans don't like change, most humans like convenience. Forums like this are made by a minority, who share knowledge and time and take time to help others out. The vast rest of members is lurking and meme posting.
But I expect the majority to stay, at least now. Probably this blackout helped developing new forums though and maybe Reddit's popularity will slowly fade, we will see.
I am the same, significantly reducing my reddit consumption until I cut it out entirely.
