So I've seen a few posts regarding news outlets calling the protests a failure, and I don't really think that's the case. The protests have clearly made an impact, especially if the Reddit CEO is willing to oust MODS to reopen subreddits. I truly believe that something has been jump started here on Lemmy, Kbin, and all of the fediverse. What happened on Reddit has simply pushed those already on the fence, or looking for other social media platforms to jump ship. I truly believe the impact is greater than what the media and Reddit in general want us to believe. Something has started here on the fediverse that simply cannot be stopped, all we can do is inform others and show why it's the future of aggregated news boards and social media.

I am not going back after june30, Reddit ceo behaviour is something people should go against, even if it’s Apple i would dump them all and make the switch
Especially since Reddit is user generated content there’s no point to stick to it regardless

Those mods who are helping in needs should make extra effort to help user transition out of Reddit too, those who could help should also

It’s user generated content for Christ sake!

About 95% of the time I spent on Reddit was via a third party app on my phone, so come June 30 I physically can't do that at all.

Thanks good guy Spez for helping me beat this addiction.

Yes that is my concern as well. There seems to be an Elon effect for CEOs where they are thinking they can say and do whatever and it will barely affect them.

I am just one person but I don't want to contribute to their egos and harmful behavior.
