I'm really interested to see what happens at the end of this week. I have a group of friends that all hang out in discord and out of the group (about 12 of us) I'm the only one that's moved on from Reddit. Every time I see one of them post a Reddit link I want to say something but I just keep quiet and don't follow the links. I'm guessing this is just going to blow over for 90% of the people on Reddit and I'm fine with that but it is somewhat depressing to me folks aren't as bothered by what they are doing to third party apps.
I think tbh it will be more gradual than that. AI and shills and whatnot will run free and unfettered across the entire Reddit landscape, and people will move on when it hits their personal tipping point and some alternative becomes more useful.
