Good luck doing that with 8000 other subs.
They don't need to take over all of them. A dozen or two of the largest subs would be plenty. Those with less than a couple hundred thousand subscribers, don't really matter much.
Even trying to take over the biggest subs would be Herculean, especially considering they just laid off 5% of their staff.
Those subs required a huge effort to moderate before, but it's going to be 10x worse now that every submission is going to be AI generated pictures of spez doing things to goats or something.
That's true, but it's still a lot less than 8000 subs.
They supposedly did it with /r/tumblr too
