    I’d exchange Reddit and X. The rate at which X is going downhill right now just cannot be beaten by anything.

      Agreed. I mean I never expected Elon to be smart but good god is that dude an idiot. Everyone reading this could 100% do a better job in his shoes.

    Does this reflect how the platform is actually doing or do we just like the circlejerk of wishing they would fail? Because everything I’ve seen says Reddit has been completely unaffected by the changes made and they’re still getting more user signups, engagements and interaction/posts than ever.

    Tik Tok also seems to be growing strong.

    Twitter is a genuine laughing stalk and is pulling major shit…but everyone still seems to be using it regularly.

    I feel like unity is the most likely to die. Their users are way more likely to switch to an alternative than people using reddit

    Unity alternatives are also way more known than reddit or twitter alternatives

      But the alternatives aren’t as developed. Godot still isn’t great for 3D projects and Unreal is Epic and also has royalty fees like Unity tried to add.

        Unreal only has a 5% fee on games that made over 1 million USD

        Unity wanted to add a 0.20 USD tax for every download after you made 200K USD 200K users(which changes depending on how many downloads your game has and which plan you are using)

        Units pricing method could have been easily exploited, game developers would have to pay for people pirating their games, if a free to play game reached those requirments, it could cost them more than the game made, giveaways would cost game developers money and all unity games would have to collect data
