I mean its pretty amazing it’s the 15th now and over 5000 are still private when the plan was supposed to go up to the 14th. Many have just switched to restricted. This also gives time for people to get used to other platforms and still get help transitioning away from Reddit while using Reddit to do so. It also gives time for improvements to the fediverse and the apps available.

When you say it like that, and the news article I just read regarding 30% decreased activity on the most frequently used subreddits which causes ad companies to be cautious regarding running and launching ad campaigns... this is indeed huge :)
