The amount of dark subreddits is wild. I'm pessimistic that this will create any meaningful change on the platform, but really hoping either way that alternatives not backed by corporations will grow and compete.
If nothing else its forced people to consider the need for an alternative and to open their eyes to places like Tilde/Lemmy/Kbin/etc. It may not be much now, but over time if reddit continues it's shitty behaviour and people now know these alternatives exist, more and more people can move over.
What's Tilde? Tried looking it up but all that comes up is a software firm and a translator app.
Tilde is a Reddit wannabe. It's the same kind of centralized, monolithic site that Reddit is, but its management hasn't gone full asshole (yet.)
Then it's useless. We need Fediverse alternatives not to keep jumping between proprietary monoliths that will be enshittified once people are lured in
