It harbors too many people, who go there for a specific content and don't care about the internal dramas, or who leads the place and what he thinks about the userbase. In addition... Eh, it hosted Obama, Arnold, plenty of actors, celebrities.

My assumption is that it will simply evolve into something different, but no less popular.

After all, Facebook was caught redhanded on such abominable practices that it should be burnt to a crisp long time ago, and yet it's still there, led by that automaton, what'shisname...

I mean Facebook is actually a perfect example though no? I don't know anyone below 40 who uses it. Eventually people get fed up of these stupid websites and move elsewhere.

Reddit will be around just like Facebook sure, but somewhere else will pick up the slack.

In Facebooks case that was Instagram largely which you know, also they owned. In Reddits case it may be Lemmy it may be elsewhere, we will see.

But that's the point I'm making here. Facebook didn't fall and Reddit won't either. It's going to evolve, cater to different clientele, offer different content/experience. But it won't fall.
