Maybe, but the same is true for the pro-Ukraines. The actual Russian pro-Russians have been far more pessimistic and blackpilled about this.
According to Russians with Attitude, who did not support the coup, there was a lot of support for Prigozhin and that was why units did not fire on Wagner (or perhaps to avoid a civil war). It seems that Putin is indeed not all-powerful. One user described it as follows: Erdogan is polarizing but he is beloved by a lot of people who are willing to put their lives on the line for him. Putin has much wider support, but the support is not very deep.
