User visits and time spent on the social media platform normalize after traffic to Reddit briefly dipped last week during the blackout, according to SimilarWeb.
I’ve seen an overview from a popular sub a while ago, as far as I remember a third were using 3rd party apps at least part of the time. Many people use multiple ways to view Reddit though, apps on mobile, old Reddit in a tab at work etc.
Yes, but many of the "power users" (ie, not lurkers who downloaded the official app because its the "official app) are the ones making content which drives enagement who are using 3rd party apps, as well as the majority of mods AFAIK.
All we can do now is speculate until the price of API access pushes our 3rd party apps in July.
