And the protests proved inaffective, as I initially thought and said to many, just move, no need to protest, just leave for Lemmy and leave your accounts. That was all that was needed and no protest in the world is gonna beat reddit or the admins that will just overried your NSFW settings. Leaving the platform says way more than protesting this or that.

And no, if the point of the protest was to just delete all info from reddit, then I would've never been behind that protest. The delete everything idea was promoted by some extreme protesters and unfortunatelly, some users went allong with that.

One of the points of the protest was to drive down engagement to the reddit website entirely. You searched for a problem, found that reddit no longer has the answers, and posted about your frustrations on lemmy, a direct competitor to reddit, driving up engagement on lemmy instead.

I'm pretty sure the protest is working just as intended, even after it "ended".

I'm really sorry about your problem though. I wish I had the expertise to help, but I don't.
