    The people who see the protest as a failure were many of the users who used the official app, default settings, and seldom if ever contributed to the site. They were never going to leave anyway.

    Look how many people came here, and there is a noticeable decrease in the number of bots and trolls. I see this as a huge win for us users.

    Edit: Just realized this is ambiguous. There’s noticeably fewer bots and trolls here on Lemmy than there were on reddit.

      Not only are there fewer trolls here but there are but more well thought out replies and less attention seeking in general. The entirety of Reddit is going to turn into r/teenagers
