Hypothetically speaking, if Reddit back tracks on their API plan and meets all of the communities expeditions- would you go back to Reddit?

I myself am really on the fence about this.
I hate what Reddit has done, as I was removed as a moderator on my sub. But I much prefer the UI to Lemmy so far. I’m also having a hard time understanding how this all works. I was familiar with Reddit, and it is obviously a way more active community.
But I also used Apollo and hate how they’ve done him so dirty.
Will you guys return if Reddit rights it’s wrongs?

No. I'll use RSS to lurk on subs that don't move, but this more and fragmentation has pushed me to finally try and curb my endless scrolling habits (by utilising IRC, I now only go through small bytes of content, and if I don't feel like it is important, I don't waste any more time).
do you have any more info on how to get started with this? I have no desire to go back but would love to know how to loosely lurk like that
Download any FOSS RSS client for your OS. I'm looking at:
- https://github.com/yang991178/fluent-reader
- https://github.com/hello-efficiency-inc/raven-reader
- https://github.com/nkanaev/yarr
I'll be switching from QuiteRSS which is not maintained anymore.
Then, find how to get rss feeds for whatever you want (Reddit, Lemmy and Youtube are fairly easy). That's all
I’m also interested in how this might work.
