Sounds like a good opportunity for a community-organized effort to crapflood the subs and make the scabs' lives a living hell.

Furthermore, the people most pissed off at Reddit aren't just the moderators, it's also a lot of the power users who post the vast majority of the content. So Reddit would have to hire a bunch of scab "power users" to post content. And a lot of subreddits are based on original content, not news links, so real power users won't be so easy to replace.

ChatGPT to the rescue.

I think the feeling at Reddit HQ is that as long as there isn't someplace else for the users to go they will be alright. I mean where else are you going to get a Reddit like experience? Digg? Tumblr? Livejournal? Slashdot? Twitter? Usenet?!? Nothing really compares to Reddit. Personally, I wouldn't feel too confident. I saw how fast Digg and Tumblr collapsed. Even if you don't know the name of the next big thing, it is probably out there already.
