I'm not sure how they are actually anticipating this not to go negatively. If they are pushing active moderators and replacing them, that seems like a PR nightmare waiting to happen on top of all of this.
So done with reddit I finally took the time to figure out how federated platforms work. Just started on kbin, and I've been seeing a lot more of what I actually want to see.
Kbin's been good to me as a replacement so far. I have my nitpicks but I also understand it's very early days.
considering how early it is, this place is very active
I love that it federates with lemmy too. So many options.
The people who care have left. The people who don't care stayed and they obviously won't give a shit. The only way they're going to give a fuss is when the content torpedoes, which it looks like it's already started.
People who are fed up need to not leave. They need to go become a mild nuisance. Give nonsense answers to people (those who need casual assistance anyway). Pollute the data without contributing anything useful. And use an ad blocker the whole time.
Engagement is activity which is numbers you can show for the IPO. It's also ad revenue. Best to not engage at all honestly.
