Exactly as the title says, do you guys think Reddit will buckle and at least be more reasonable or maybe even reverse their current decisions?
Edit: if not lemmy to the moon 🚀

I am a former redditor (and mostly lurker) who never used a third party app for Reddit. I still quit. Have hope.
When on pc I exclusively used the new reddit format (so not old.reddit) and was used to it. But on the phone it was only Apollo for years, and I mostly consumed reddit on my phone. I was considering ditching reddit mainly because of how they’ve now (most likely successfully) tried to muscle out 3rd party app developers in order to force mobile users on their own app; but now sifting through kbin here the conversations and the topics seem much more genuine than reddit as well. I think you kind of start to become desensitized to the bot network and hivemind with time, so it’s a nicely refreshing experience really.
This is how I feel, too. I spent a long time on reddit searching for places with genuine, meaningful conversation, and Reddit had it more compared to other social media, but it’s clear that fediverse exceeds in providing that space.
Very much this take. I came to Reddit because it mostly housed the communities/topics I cared about. I can’t in good faith continue using a platform that has decided it is worth more than the users who provide content for it.
