I guess I'm in that boat. I've been on Reddit since 2009 or 2010 and the quality has gotten to the point where if I forget to log in, I don't even recognize what the default front page is anymore.

The people leaving now are either going to go back because they don't really care about any of this and it's just the issue du jour, or they have been planning to leave for a while anyway. I'm in that. I'll maintain a presence until that presence is reproduced elsewhere, and then I'll be gone for good. There's just no site that does what Reddit does as well as Reddit when Reddit does what Reddit does well.
