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?

They block unless you’re logged in. It’s very annoying, still have to use reddit occasionally to find some info or something niche (admittedly not as bad as finding something on discord).
Well they blocked every account associated with my IP, so I’m not doing that either.
Are there any third-party reddit readers that circumvent this? Or did their API shenanigans block that, too?
Look up Redlib
I hadn’t really tried to be honest, just using my old account until they start asking for age verification, then I’d look at other solutions.
I use RedReader without an account, connected through a VPN. It’s FOSS, but with these settings, it’s really slow. Okay for text and images, bad for videos.
