There was no mass migration (yet). For starters, I'd say that the majority already uses the official Leddit app and does not care (like two out of three people I know who casually browse).

It also doesn't help that some apps like RIF still work in some capacity. At the moment you can still browse non-NSFW, but only logged out, and that's enough for some.

Furthermore, this only reflects mobile usage. I still browse Reddit using old reddit (up until they kill that), but have deleted all my content and refrain from posting new comments.

As much as I want to say we wonnered, we are the vocal minority. Some subs I frequent, like /r/PCMasterRace and /r/leagueoflegends didn't even protest.

Yes, Reddit posts have subjectively felt more repost-y and soulless, but we don't have the insight.

There was no mass migration. Quite a few communities I enjoyed don't even exist in a meaningful way over here. Perhaps after 3rd party apps truly die, awards are gone, and they kill old reddit, but that's a big if, not when.

Joa, ich würd' sagen schon so mindestens drei, vielleicht auch vier.

At the end of the day, ragebait is still ragebait, and brings in clicks (as well as ad revenue)...

I haven't felt sorry for mods since the mods of a sub I'll not mention decided to stop the protest after some of them got banned, because "we don't want the sub to fall into the hands of randoms".

Spineless behavior. Just move and rebuild the community elsewhere. It has been more than a month and the ship has sailed. Even if Reddit decides to backpedal for now, they'll try again in the future.

Same energy as the almost yearly "once in a century flood/storm/wildfire".

I'll be there to link /c/AwardSpeeches or whatever that sub was called.

Hatte ich bis vorhin nicht, aber ich werde es mal auf meinem Smartphone ausprobieren. Hoffentlich läufts.

Habe gestern auch meinen Account leergeräumt und einen hier auf Feddit erstellt. Ich werde am PC noch dank old.reddit ein wenig lurchen, aber sobald das auch abgestellt wird, oder Lemmy sich entwickelt, bin ich da raus.

Jetzt fehlt nur noch eine App wie RIF, die auch auf meinem Android-Smartphone der untersten Güteklasse mit Android 5 funktioniert, ohne Zertifikationsprobleme anzugeben, oder sich kurz nach Start wieder schließt.
