In reality, losing the nsfw content was certain death, but losing the app would have just been a downsizing. Maybe not even a major one - platforms are sticky as hell. I think most people would happily use the browser.
Now if you go out of your way to make your browser experience dogshit, like Patreon... Then yeah, losing the app store is very bad.
