Surely they can't survive after this, right? Like, people can't be okay with this.

I guess they're betting on most casual users to just not notice or care enough

Exactly this, unfortunately.

And they're right. Let them have Reddit, they deserve it.

It's staggering the amount of people that are fine with things and just want it to go back to normal

Too many users on reddit love this because they hate mods and think reddit is somehow going to get rid of moderation when reddit is trying to be advertiser friendly.

Just a handful of people will know, so it doesn't matter.

People are ok with this and even if not, they’ll forget it in a few months. Remember when YouTube removed the dislike button? Or surveys? Or forced more ads onto its users?

Nobody is talking about that anymore (except maybe the ads part)

There’s no real alternative to YouTube. An aggregator is not as novel or as complex as a video hosting service with millions of channels with huge productions and followings. This is also a lot bigger than a thumbs down button.
