    Reddit might have won, but i definitely did too. It made me finally leave Reddit and got me here. And who knows, perhaps one day Reddit will drown in its enshittification enough for it to vanish into nothing but the great history of the internet. Then, at last, we will still be here.

      The thing I’ll still hop over to reddit for are the smaller niche communities for certain hobbies or even specific products. That’s one thing the insane userbase numbers on reddit is good for, these very small niche interests are able to leech off that. In a few of those cases the subs have had Discord servers for a while, which I actually use more than the subreddits even before they made the API changes.

      I think over time the reddit experience, for people who actually want to comment and participate, will continue to become more shitty.

        I believe if there’s one community that will take forever (if at all) to move to the fediverse, it’s the manga/anime community.

        Subs like r/anime and r/OshiNoKo are as active as ever - especially during r/Place, pay attention and you’ll see a lot of anime mascots in the canvas back when it was around. Anime/mangas also tend to attract the younger crowd which tend not to care about the protest anyways, from what I’ve seen.
