Just recently updated on this, reddit are actively trying to do something about it but are still in the "oh fuck what do we do?" stage of gathering information. https://hexbear.net/comment/3946548
I don't think this is all just alienating power users. I think a major aspect of this is disturbing routines that people previously had. When people have a daily routine where they do the same thing every single day you shouldn't disturb that because then they replace that part of their routine with something else, that's what users did with reddit imo when their preferred app no longer worked. They just used something else, probably Tiktok.
