    They aren’t universally hated. No one likes them, sure, but as with a lot of things the silent majority is in the “doesn’t give a fuck” camp. This is the camp Reddit is relying on to keep using the website no matter what they do.

    Now as for why, beats me.

      My guess is that spez and co are hoping they’ve hit a critical mass of FB level users (your mum, your boss, that wacky aunt, the bus driver, etc) that after they fucked everything and the exodus happens, there will be enough people around who dont care cos “lol cats funny”.

      Only lurkers would be indifferent to losing all their messages. I guess they are likely more numerous but Reddit needs active users to keep functioning.
