That link linked to /modcoord at perhaps dozens of moderators promised to leave, which is far more impactful than users. I know just from watching kbin, lemmy and other sites grow from this summer on that hundreds to thousands likely left reddit. Unfortunately it’s probably a drop in the bucket but Web 2.0 was always probably going to win. The only real way I can see of us getting out of that en masse if when each site inevitably kills themselves through mismanagement.
Fucking delusional on this writer’s part. It was far more than dozens and a lot of those people were power users with an outsized influence on the community.
I personally moderated two 150-250k user subs. Stepped down from both and wiped all my posts and comments and have not contributed a single thing since.
I didn’t wipe my old account, but I have not been back since everything went down. I’ve looked at it occasionally but contributed nothing. It seems pretty shit atm.
"Despite these concessions, dozens of Redditors promised to stop using the site altogether "
There are dozens of us!! Lol

I’m doing my part. 🫡
no need to exaggerate 😬
Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve logged into Reddit since I started using Lenmy
I haven’t really either. Apart from the the odd Google search results here and there, but not actually logging in.

I went from multiple comments per day and posts almost every day to a couple comments a week and I think I’ve made one post since the protests
That place got hella toxic since the protests
