How is reddit post protest, did it really win over protesters? Did the ones who left make a dent? Or like all things before, did it ultimately do nothing?

Without the shit show that's the Reddit exodus I wouldn't of found kbin and wouldn't of had a fun new side project to work on. Super keen on all the fancy things we've been able to improve kbin.social over the last few weeks :)

That's one of the most important things about this in my opinion. Enough people moved over to Lemmy/kbin from this incident to kind of pave the way and help improve the platforms so that the next time reddit screws something up and a huge influx of people get a new first impression of the fediverse it will be a more positive experience for them.
