      The negative impact is that we’re here discussing this in the fediverse rather than reddit.

      It may be a drop in the bucket for them. But a seed has been planted. And if we care for it right. It will grow eventually.

        The bucket is also increasingly full of bots and astroturfers. I think they’re doing a half decent job of hiding the impact when it comes to numbers, but the drop in quality sheds a little more light.

      I’m not sure they have, there’s plenty complaints from users about the bad mods and so forth, but the numbers the C-level’s look at have probably not changed enough to worry them. Let’s see in a year or two if the user base has changed significantly.

      I would say so. Their front page is way different, and, in my opinion, worse now. Not sure if it’s made a noticeable difference to their customer base, but from a consumer standpoint 100%.
