Very possible. But even the people left I am sure will go back to virtue signaling about how awful greedy companies are and how we need to take a stand against them while ironically still posting from and thereby supporting one
As dumb as it sounds it reminds me of that Black Mirror episode where the guy slowly uncovers everyone is being lied to by the government, and ultimately gets hired by that same government as a skeptic radio persona that everyone loves to listen to while they fall back in line
And if Reddit does make positive changes those same passive users who believe anything corporations tell them (the type who call everyone else idiots because they don’t understand business) will laud the charges and say how great Reddit is for making them.
This happens so often in tech. "Company X should never change’ becomes ‘i love company X because they’ve improved!’
People can be weirdly aggressive in how they align with their favorite corporate 3rd parties.
