That’s what reddit simps want to happen, because they’re still in the fever dream that reddit is in control of the situation.
The truth is, the value has already left, and now the cattle left behind are waiting to see if the bullshit reddit has to generate to feed them competes with the user generated content
Once the masses realize reddit isn’t capable of that, they’ll evaporate out into the best suited alternative.
Particularly as reddit starts enforcing more of their enshitification schemes, which the API access block is meant to support by blocking alternative access.
You think people left now? Wait till they block anonymous browsing on adult subs, and require a government ID to get in, which they’re definitely moving toward.
