I wanted to see how many redditors decided to quit or not. But the result shows a lot of them are not quitting reddit. Some of them did not know about the blackout situation.

Ignore the discord stuff because someone answered my problem (I’m going to miss reddit for this). It hurts looking at it because I really like the rune factory community there. 😢💔

    I don’t think it’s the right question. Quitting entirely is tough for certain niche areas. Personally I think I’m going to cut everything but the one community that’s hard to replace. That’s going to cut like 90% but I’m not quiting, so I’d have to answer “not quiting”.

    Also most lurkers will follow content, and some will be driven out by excessive ads which I’m sure are coming. This takes time and they won’t have “plans” to quit.

      I’m gonna quit for entertainment, but Reddit has the last 15 years of the best tech advice. I physically can’t quit using it at work. The black out has made me noticably worse at my job. I support it, but fuck I wish it was just for new posts, that guy from three years ago that had my exact problem might have had an answer!
