    Crushed? Or drove away tons of OC creators and active members leaving a bot filled wasteland?

    This video is from August. Doesn’t reddit still have millions of users? There’s still bots copying content from there onto the fediverse and the number of active users on the threadiverse is dropping. 40k or so? That’s a drop in the bucket.

    It doesn’t feel to me like anything changed besides there being more lemmy users.

    Reddit crushed itself more than anything. Sure they ended the protest, but that place is a ghost-town now, all that’s left are the bots and politcal propaganda pushers. Stale links that are several days old populate the front pages of the big subs.
