I was thinking either Spez’d or Musked. E.g: Reddit got Spez’d when they killed 3PA.

But the funny thing is that both Spez and Musk were AHoles to the degree that Spez’d and Musked already have their own meaning. Just check urbandictionary

    As a Reddit “user” your are the product (or are producing the product) and not the customer. The customers are companies that want to book advertisement space and AI companies wanting to scrape the data for AI training. So looking from that perspective it’s not so clear if Reddit is “messing up their product”, but of course if enough of the users flee then their product becomes relatively worthless to advertisers. However the body of existing text only slowly loses its value for AI companies, so maybe the current Reddit owners want to cash out on that and don’t really care about the longer term future.
