You don’t have to stop using Reddit entirely to stick it to them.
Using Reddit a lot less? You are contributing to the overall drop in numbers
Using Reddit to protest? You are reminding others of the reasons which may draw others away and drop traffic over time
Using Reddit to let others know of the viable alternatives? Again you may draw even more people away if they find alternatives that they enjoy dropping traffic further
Not using Reddit for anything other than protest? You reduce the value of Reddit by not actually contributing any useful community content that draws people again damaging numbers.
My thoughts exactly, this is still generating a lot of traffic for reddit, and more proves the point that it doesn’t matter what they pull, as long as they do some cool stuff that only happens on Reddit, people will still go. Maybe using place for advertising the fediverse would be better but even then, still using the system. Don’t know the answer, just not sure this is as effective as we would hope.
That’s right. Stick it to Reddit by checks notes using Reddit.
Exactly. This is about as effective as a border around a profile pic to stop global climate change.
