Odo is but a drop in the ocean now. I doubt he'd be able to persuade the rest of the link to help.
They should want to help anyway.
Like I said, the Dominion should be just as motivated to stop these renegades as anyone else. There's no reason not to.
Edit: I love how Shaw reinstated Seven by "knighting" her.![]()
Maybe they have their hands full fighting the changeling revolt on their end as it is. Or more likely, Odo's changelings still defer to the "No changeling has harmed another" rule and Odo doesn't want to try to forcibly change that in fear of also turning these changelings violent.Perhaps if she'd tried that, the changelings on the Intrepid would have detected it and blasted her out of space?
Me, I'm still wondering why Starfleet can't afford to seek the help of the actual Dominion itself. They said it would risk re-igniting the war, but why? Surely the Dominion wouldn't tolerate renegade changelings any more than the Federation would? Why shouldn't they seek Odo's help?
Pride though.They should want to help anyway.

I have a feel that no we won't.Considering that one of the next episodes is titled "Dominion", i think it's very likely that the Titan will visit the Great Link in the Gamma Quadrant.
To take just a bit of real life into the argument here, Odo's changeling faction joining the fight might just make things more confusing. It's the argument against the "good guys with guns" line in gun control debates, where people point out that once good samaritans pull out guns against the criminals with guns at a crime scene, when the police arrive they won't know who is good or bad and will just shoot down everyone with a weapon.Think Jean Luc will have to do one of his speeches to convince them to help![]()
1. PIC Season 3 (so far) - Everything I suspected about the quality of this season has been reinforced.I honestly have found some sort of enjoyment in all of the seasons of Streaming Trek. Every season has had its high points and low points. At the end of the day, this is my opinion. Of course, YMMV.

If Odo's changelings start a full fledged changeling civil war, Starfleet is not going to know which changeling is good and which changeling is bad and it will cause even more chaos.
Odo: What have you done? You just vaporized Karlo, who was one of our changelings!
Shaw: But he used a bucket right? Don't the bad changelings use buckets?
Odo: I was the one who started the bucket trend! Never mind, it's too late now...
LD is the only Trek I haven’t watched in full. I gave it up during season one. I don’t watch Trek for comedy. I like some comedy in my Trek. Not the basis for it. Maybe I’ll try again someday.1. PIC Season 3 (so far) - Everything I suspected about the quality of this season has been reenforced.

Some parts in Season 2 and 3 of LD were actually quite serious. Especially the season finale of Season 3 for the latest example.
Re Borg: literally one sperm cell was all of Picardo’s contribution here. Nanobots in the sperm? And if they’re so important why not focus on Picard himself? He’s got a few zillion more cells to harvest.

Actually, as Picard isn't in his original biological body, he probably doesn't. His main connection to the Borg now is in his mind/soul (if you don't mind that as an analogy), as that is pretty much all that is left of him.

But his experience with the Federation and people of Bajor should have a lot of them questioning why they went to war with them to such a level and seemingly has.Odo is but a drop in the ocean now. I doubt he'd be able to persuade the rest of the link to help.
