In a memo to employees, Reddit CEO Steve Huffman cautioned them not to wear branded gear in public. He also said the mass user backlash “will pass.”

He has data to back his claim. This isnt the first time reddit had experience backlash from its users and many times, people just simply move on. Casual users will continue to browse reddit thru their official app and loudest voices are usually the minority. Unless the mods continue to close their respective subreddit or/and move to other platform, I don’t see reddit going down any time soon.
