R/place will increase their traffic no matter what. At least the picture can convey the protest message so they know we aren’t going to move past it that easily. Plus, keeping r/place open all day is increasing their server costs while providing no ad revenue. I don’t go to reddit other than to spread to good word of Lemmy and to downvote admins so I think that has more benefit to us than to them.

As if that means anything to them?

You’re a minority.

Reddit admins ABSOLUTELY RUINED by frequent EXPLETIVES and DOWNVOTES

I don’t think we are a minority at all. Look at any admin communication and all you see are complaints related to the changes. Also I think the protests actually are hurting moral at Reddit, and could potentially affect their IPO, but I’m mostly just enjoying a bit of schadenfreude from watching how poorly things can go for them. I know it won’t affect their decisions in the end. https://lemmy.world/post/1796444

If you think their individual contribution there doesn’t matter, why do you think their individual contribution leaving the site matters.

We’re always a minority.

I don’t think it matters.

I left the site, disappointed, because Reddit was great. I’m a transplant.

I understand why everyone is angry. It’s a natural response, but after 2 months of this you’d think we’d have realized that there isn’t much that can be done.

Reddit is going to aim to profit. There isn’t much to it beyond that.
