With Reddit flirting with requiring Age verification, the next Rexit might be around the corner, are we ready? (piefed.social)

With previous Rexit's like the API debarcle etc. many users were left looking for an alternative, but with decision fatigue and bad UX etc. most did not find the Fediverse a viable option.

What needs to still improve, how can we be ready this time?

There was a boycott is over moment? Isn't reddit still blocking third party apps?

Basically a lot of people got their anger out, then moved on with their life.

I never boycotted Reddit, I just refused to use their app and new reddit. I ended up just using desktop mode old reddit without an app. If reddit moved to an age verification I would just drop it completely lol.
