"... not going to change anything"

Yet look what happened to the fediverse. I wouldn't be here without his boneheaded move. So it already changed things for me and thousands more like me. I don't plan on going back.

Yeah for me it was sort of good that this happened as I've been meaning to stop using reddit for a while. Was planning on using RSS readers for following news though, will have to get into that more.

RSS-feeds are good for fiding content to post too :)

Yup, that's why I'm here, I am curious if federated services will become the norm in the future though, even for bigger companies...

I know meta has announced a twitter-like that will use the ActivityPub protocol, which is a little concerning to me, but it could be a good thing if it brings more users to the fediverse, and if they open source anything.
