How many users here do you think are going to get bored and end up back on Reddit as soon as the blackout ends? (lemmy.world)

I don't mean to be pessimistic, bit since most subreddits are only going dark for a couple days, the site will basically be back to normal soon. I wonder how many users here are only here because of temporary outrage and not because they actually prefer Lemmy. I'm curious about people's outlook on this situation.

Edit: Wow this blew up!

Edit 2: Thanks for the gold kind stranger!

Edit 3: RIP my inbox! I can't believe this made /r/all!

Edit 4: We did it ~~Reddit!~~ Lemmy!

The real test will be when the apps go dark at the end of June.

Exactly! A considerable number of individuals are unwilling to utilize the Official Reddit App, and even Huffman himself has confirmed that he doesn't care about the fate of these apps, which ultimately leads to the demise of Reddit without the presence of these Third Party Apps. It's just a matter of time now...
