Simple question: Will you go back to Reddit and other centralized social media platforms, if Reddit step back from the API changes? The benefits of Reddit are obvisiouly, it has million of users and even small communitys have thousands of users.
For me it's pretty clear, after deleting my Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Discord accounts, the decentraliced Fediverse is my future in social media. Even with an very much smaller community, i'm not willing to be treated as ad-cow for the big corps.
But what do you think about your future in social media? Fediverse or Reddit, Meta, Google and all the others? Or will you go safe and use both, to have an backup option?

If reddit took a step back I will definitely use it, but the fact that you can ask a question without being flooded with bad jokes makes this platform have value for me. I'll happily use both.
Exactly. About time reddit has some real competition. Also it's scary how much important info you can get only on reddit, I hope we can get backups.
It horrifies me how many people have likely already deleted their accounts and inadvertently deleted context for a bunch of posts.
