Makes me think that reddit will still grow even after implementing all of the unpopular decisions.

    I still can’t figure out what they’re actually doing. My husband was worried that he wasn’t going to be able to watch at work. But, so far that hasn’t proved to be true. So… Yeah. Idk. We’re keeping it for now, and as long as he/we can continue to watch both at home and at work. And, bonus points if my dad can watch at his second house in Asheville (he lives with us half time and there half time, we split sharing of various streaming services…)

    On one hand yeah, the majority of users just uses whatever official tools are available.

    On the other, reddit doesn’t really have any exclusive or paywalled content like Netflix does - if alternatives like Lemmy manage to acquire a critical mass of users, we might see a shift, but IMO i don’t really see it happening anytime soon. The average “normie” user of reddit will probably just shift to another big name like twitter or facebook (which still has 6x the monthly active users of twitter, as much as people on the internet pretend it’s dead)

      True, and many people probably overestimate how many Netflix subscribers are going back to pirating movies/tv series.
