Yup, I agree with him. However, I'm still happy that all the Reddit stuff happened. That may naturally sound weird, but at least now there are enough people on Lemmy to be a viable replacement for me personally

Just finished watching the video - I think the main reason he's calling it a failure is because the site is effectively "business as usual" again as far as a regular user is concerned, with little positive outcome for the people affected by the changes. He also expresses concern about this setting a bad precedent.

Personally, I think the protest has been OK so far, a lot of nice folk have moved into the Fediverse (and other alternatives), with the toxic users mainly staying on Reddit. There's more 3rd party Lemmy apps in the works, and it's very active here with the ex-redditors.

All-in-all, a pretty positive outcome for some users like ourselves, but sadly not for everyone affected
