    About like 0.5% Max actually stopped using Reddit. The amount of people who “left” is/was MASSIVELY overblown.

      About like 0.5% Max actually stopped using Reddit.

      It isn’t just people who stopped using it completely; it’s also people who were active there, and after the events started simply lurking. I believe that quite a bit of people did this (way more than the 0.5% who left), and that this is mostly overshadowed by the surge of bot content there.

      And even if only 0.5% did something different, it means 99.5% fit what I said in the second paragraph.

          Lurking Reddit isn’t quitting Reddit.

          Sure. And you are missing the point. I’m saying that nobody there will lift a bloody finger against the situation, because they either left (the 0.5%) or decided to lurk only.

          Is this clear now?
