It’s a good bet. Breaking habits is hard, but removing some people’s preferred way of using Reddit forces them to go cold turkey. It’s a great opportunity for all the alternatives.
Of course, if you wanted a name that was always taken you could just join another federated site. For example, you’re [email protected] but there could also be a [email protected], etc.
I went from Slide to Apollo. When I heard about the API news, I tried out their official app, and it was just horrible. There were even ads in the comments!
Hopefully there’s another wave of power users moving to Lemmy/Kbin after the 30th.

Yeah, I switched from RedReader to Slide to Infinity, never even considered the official Reddit app, it’s so slow and there’s so much ad there.
