I don’t think we’re the right demographic to judge that as our view is very distorted by our own experience. The reddit “exodus” is barely a blip in their daily user count - in fact DAU has gone up by 50% since the API changes which is huge especially for a mature platform. This makes it very desirable as it shows that the more aggressive monetization effort doesn’t in fact drive users away.
Fair point and maybe I am looking at it wrong. I tunneled on the visual / idea that once it ceased being what made it popular that it would be no more.
But I can now see it being another grazing pasture for seniors to scream their political fears into the void like Facebook.
