I feel like its going to be a lot like the Twitter meltdown after Musk took over: a lot of noise in protest, a shittier experience for the user base, but it will ultimately live on because people would rather adapt to the new paradigm then move onto something unfamilliar.
I don't think its fair to compare to Twitter though. Most people use Twitter to follow celebrities, not for user generated content. That's why this place needs to keep its momentum going and attract users beyond the initial spite created by reddit.
