How reddit crushed the biggest protest in its history: Did it, though? (www.theverge.com)

How is reddit post protest, did it really win over protesters? Did the ones who left make a dent? Or like all things before, did it ultimately do nothing?

we'll never get there if users keep gatekeeping

I see many people arguing against improving the ux "its not that hard just learn it"

even defederating meta is bad imo, I think people will be more likely to switch over to alternatives if thread is federated, but if we defederate it then everyone will just stay on threads. Defederating only hurts us, not meta
