That’s a nice fantasy, but the reality is that only a tiny portion of people actually migrate off a platform these days. Reddit knows that they can abuse their userbase for profit without considerable fallout, which is why they do it. Users don’t have the desire or patience to create new communities these days. They’re not interested in going somewhere with fewer people. Of course some users are interested, those users are us. But what was the percentage of people during the mass Exodus? I think it was less than 1% if I remember correctly.
Reddit is already starting to replace permanent bans with little two or three day bans because they can’t afford to lose the active users that tend to get reports.
