I'm not sure. I mean you enter once to see the gimmick, maybe twice to post something and make the joke. But that's it. The subreddit content that millions of people seeked everyday is still gone, and people is not really going to keep frequenting those plsces with regularity until the content is back.
It all depends on how long can they keep the strike before being overthrow by reddit admins. A few months of vaccum cleaners or John Oliver pics and those subreddits would be generating a fraction of their original traffic.
