i hate spez as much as the next guy, but i don’t think they care at all. everyone who visits reddit is contributing to the traffic numbers that they will show investors, including the people who write “fuck spez” on a page that those investors will never look at
If you leave spez wins. The majority of users will stay there and they either don’t care about, don’t understand, or don’t know about spez’s decisions. I’m sure spez would be happy to see all the protesting users who make him look bad leave.
Why should spez care? If people never leave and keep using the platform, why should he change his actions at all? Users can bitch and moan as much as they like, but they’re doing it using his app and seeing his ads. Even if the entire site turns into nothing but “fuck spez” posts, that doesn’t matter as long as those posts are being made and read.

This is still engagement and engagement drives value. Spez wins, unless you leave.
