the thing is just like how people thought r/antiwork would be gone, turns out after some time it regained it users and activities, so I guess lets see if reddit users would be back, especially the amount of people browse from pc is not a small number either, I believe big subreddit will still alive or retained its user just like usual
If it's anything like the Digg migration, it'll take time.
