As far as I understand, the thrid party app developers stood in solidarity and they are scrapping the apps no matter what at this point.

The protest is more of a way to show reddit administration that they need to be community centric rather than profit motivated because the community can mess their shit up if when they need to.

I don't know what it will do, really. I'm just glad I got out and found this place. I hope more like minded people find it and move too.

    It is bitter sweet, but I am excited to a new start in a much smaller (dare I say tighter?) community.

    The short time I've spent here so far has been relaxing in a way. I don't feel rushed to get to the next post. The clunkiness on mobile reminds me of forums back in the early 2000s. I'm sure the nostalgia will wear off, but at this very hectic point in my life, it's nice to slow down for a change.

    This has exactly been my experience so far. I've been on reddit for about ten years and the last few years things just got a bit too big/hectic. I'm very excited about a fresh start regarding social media and really think this might be the way to go!

    I agree with both of you @Rexxiter and @Ole, and the best thing for me here is, people actually talking about things like a normal forum.

    Reddit has that "everything is an inside joke and to get upvotes, you gotta post the appropriate inside joke first" feeling. It's a collosal collection of memes in that regard.

    This here feels like a normal forum with normal people talking normally about normal things. It's amazing!

    I, for one, am going to miss the endless inside jokes that every subreddit has. But one of the perks of being an early adopter is that maybe I can see new ones appearing here.
