I see a lot of comments from bootlickers on how the protests are dumb and stupid and dont work and engagement metrics are still holding but the quality of posts and comments has noticeably depreciated imo. So much so that whenever I visit the site Im actually shocked at how bad it is.
Yeah. You no longer get first mover’s advantage by just taking the obvious forum name, so you no longer get remain the owner of a massive community by default. If people don’t like the environment, they’ll just find another space with the same name and use that instead.
There will be consternation over the overlapping names, especially by people who fear missing out on something someone is saying (even though they most certainly were not refreshing “New” on forums with 20M subscribers to see what wasn’t getting up voted), but for many that’ll go away once they realize they can pick “the good version” of a space.
Whatever that means to them.
