Are we likely to see another large-scare exodus to the Threadiverse as reddit begins rolling out age-verification worldwide?

Reddit is 80%+ bots so I don’t expect those accounts to shift platforms. But I do imagine some former reddit users will trickle over as it continues to alienate its fanbase with stupid choices like getting rid of old reddit.

Most of Reddit’s users do not post, comment, or even vote.

Reddit’s product is the ability to sell people the perception of a natural conversation between two ordinary people on the internet, where the conversation is shaped by corporations and state agents.

Actual ordinary people get in the way of that. Reddit does not want users.

Can attest to that. I tried starting a new reddit account with an anonymous email just to talk to people. Apparently reddit assumed I was a bot and shadow banned me within a week. Never had that with any other emails.
