The answer should be: no. Here's the poll btw. for anyone interested.: https://www.reddit.com/poll/15c0bvr About 2.9k in favor to 900 against atm. Results may be influenced by survivorship bias.
Update: 5.1k in favor to 1.5k against.
It's absolutely influenced. Everyone who found a nice place e.g. on here is just not on Reddit and not seeing it anymore. Had a similar poll on a different subreddit I completely missed.
By now, yeah, but the damage is done. Power users and mods left in droves when they saw reddit overriding mods to reopen big subs. At that point they'd shown just how much they DGAF about the people that actually provide all the value on their site. As the moderation and content dwindles it's going to turn more into a barren wasteland/cesspit and it'll fade into irrelevance. If this network has done its job creating an alternative for people to go to when that happens, then we'll have liberated a large swathe of social media.
The protest basically doesn't even need to happen at this point.
update? i think a mod made an announcement on the lemmy instance
