This post helped me realize that my Memmy client hadn't updated in a bit, so thanks for that!
I had to open TestFlight and accept the terms again, not sure why.
It’s already happened!

Memory is short on the internet. Reddit are hoping for this to blow over "quickly" (i.e. in a month or two) because they know the bulk of their users will continue to show up (out of inertia or a lack of viable alternatives). If they can keep the front page showing decent posts, they think they'll make it through.
I think the knock-on effects of losing mods and "power users" will take some time to play out. The real long term effects won't be known until it becomes clear that the loss of those key users has effected the quality of the posts and therefor usage by your "average Redditor."
I don't think "higher education is typically liberal leaning" but rather as you learn more about the world, and how to think critically about it, you realize that most conservative ideals are not in the best interest of most people. They are actually in the interest of those already in power and/or with wealth.
It's kind of like that saying that nothing removes prejudice faster than travel (or something like that, I'm paraphrasing from memory here).
I’d hazard a guess that what respondents really want to return to not being expected to be available to anyone at any time. And, crucially, they don’t feel they can just … do that.
I think you hit the nail on the head here. People want to go back to a time when it wasn’t possible, but I think even more importantly where it wasn’t expected, that you are available 24/7/365.
The good thing is we can, as a society, start to not expect that availability.
Oh man! I just got the green version from their web store. Didn’t know they had a glow in the dark variant!
Nice! My vinyl copy should be here soon
