Some people are optimistic, which isn’t a bad thing, since by leaving Reddit, they would be basically abandoning the whole account, and the identity that they had established for themselves over there.
Others either don’t really care about what’s going on, or have no idea. It doesn’t affect them, and from their perspective, it’s much ado about nothing, or just the standard batch of Reddit drama.
Others might hope that making a fuss might get picked up by the media, which is likely to make Reddit back down, and ameliorate some of their proposed changes, hence the John Oliver business, which I don’t think is an accident. There’s some history there, since Reddit has previously stood firm on changes, only to back down when the media got a hold of things.
