This one will pass as they lose substantial number of users and contribute to the growing fidiverse.

However for them, it's not a big deal as the get the following benefits

  1. All undesirable users leave for fidiverse or other reddit alternatives.
  2. The remaining users will be tame like the users of FB, Instagram. Which destroys Reddit as we know it, but the new Sanitised Reddit will be more appealing to investors in an IPO even with less users.

Hopefully this is a turning point and leads to the development of The real Web 3.0, federated version of Web 1.0. (The Metaverse bullshit can no longer be called Web 3.0)

Meta verse was the corporate wet dream of taking all of Web 2.0 and making it under an umbrella of just one company. That’s why Suckhercock was pushing calling it Web 3.0 in the first place was to try and get ahead on branding and pretend like he had the next best thing. Billions later and there’s still nothing to show for it other than an even shittier Roblox clone.
