It was never going to do more than get people talking, the number of subreddits isn’t as important as what the long term impact to users and quality will be.
They have signaled their interests are not user centric, it wont be the last outrage I’m sure but they’ll keep getting away with it if there isn’t a clear alternative and people keep going back.
That’s true. The changes don’t really effect me in any immediate way, but the blackout gave me a reason to uninstall Reddit for a few days and try Lemmy.

Blocking mobile web access and ending old reddit is going to bring more people here over time.
