MODERATORS
It depends on what changes they made. Reddit is fairly left-leaning so if they start seeing more right-wing content or racist crap being allowed on the site, it might happen.
People quit X because it allowed notorious racists and neo-Nazis back on the site, and also did dumb stuff like not allowing people to unfollow Elon Musk (it will automatically re-follow him after some time). It also prioritised and propagated right-wing content which, shockingly, left-wing users didn't like.
What Musk did is roughly the Reddit-equivalent of reinstating t_d and auto-subscribing everybody.
If that happened, yeah, folks would leave in rather large numbers.
Anything left of Biden/Harris is met with a torrent of abuse. If anything, Reddit is split between centrists and fascists. And some of the mods will ban anyone who's active and doesn't agree with their politics.
Au contraire, mon amis.
From an American perspective, Reddit is split between liberals and progressives with a minority of socialists and conservatives.
