      5 months.

      2 for the new owners to come up with a plan on how to extract the most value from their purchase.

      1 to implement a shitty idea that will immediately get community backlash, then revert it.

      2 to wait for people to forget about it before introducing the same idea but presented in a less shitty way.

      If I was to place any bets on what they would do, it’s either going to be: selling comments and mod descriptions to a corporation for LLM training; or adding time-tracking analytics to their modding client and selling that data to advertisers or research firms while making users require a subscription to use third-party clients.
