Reddit essentially wants to profit off of user-generated content, and once a critical mass of users decide to leave or just not make content it will stagnate and dwindle in popularity. People are acting as if this hasn't happened before. It has: 2009-2010 was when an exodus of users from the past dominant social aggregator Digg formed a critical mass and happened upon Reddit.
The only important thing to these platforms like reddit and now lemmy is the content. If there is valuable info here, people will stay. If there isn't then it will fade away.
