It has reduced traffic to my website by around 65%. I live from that website. My income is a function of the traffic it gets.
I spent 9 years of my life putting hard-earned information on the internet, and now big tech uses it to enrich themselves while putting me out of work. Even my backup plan - software development - is being devalued to hell. It's so damn depressing. We'll get the internet that we deserve.
To be fair, the traffic you had was mostly routed by them as well. Google giveth, Google taketh away.
