LOOOOLOLOL brother, I want some of what you're smoking because I want to exist in this reality where people are fleeing Reddit rather than flocking to it. This only affects logged-out visitors, not so much "users". Most platforms have been this way for a long time and seen no such decline either. Pretty much the entire internet is already account-gated.
Already account-gated and increasingly human-verification-gated as well.
wait til you see ID-gated, and facial scan, thats what facebook does.
