It won’t die in “a few weeks”, simply because the likelihood of everybody abandoning ship in such a short timeframe is pretty much zero.
It will almost certainly become irrelevant after some years (we just don’t know how many) because almost nothing remains relevant on the Net for more than a decade or two, though even “irrelevant” things still attract a few people so they rarelly “die”.
Edit: Also and as a side note, I’ve actually been questioning just how many people needs to be around here for it to be a good place to be in. I don’t think the “millions” of people of Reddit actually added to it and suspect that a few tens of thousand of users are enough for the place to feel interesting to be in and participate in, except perhaps in very obscure and niche subjects were you do need millions of people around for there to be a handful that are interested in such subjects.
