Excerpt:

Most major subreddits show a decrease of between 50 and 90 percent in average daily posts and comments, when compared to a year ago. This suggests the problem is way fewer users, not the same number of users browsing less. The huge and universal dropoff also suggests that people left, either because of the changes or the protests, and they aren’t coming back.

      I haven’t posted once since RIF was disabled. I think my account is up to 16 years now. I’ve been on a subreddit if Google brought me there, but I don’t browse anymore.

      Jerboa is pretty similar to RIF so it’s been great.

          Going to put a plug here for Thunder. I used RedReader as my reddit app of choice and Thunder in compact mode is almost exactly the same as how i used RedReader. Love it.

        Infinity just moved to a subscription model, so i don’t have to check anymore

        Even though I’ve already been using the Lemmy fork, Eternity, its nice to know that I’m basically never gonna have to use that god forsaken site ever again
