i hate spez as much as the next guy, but i don't think they care at all. everyone who visits reddit is contributing to the traffic numbers that they will show investors, including the people who write "fuck spez" on a page that those investors will never look at
This is still engagement and engagement drives value. Spez wins, unless you leave.
If you leave spez wins. The majority of users will stay there and they either don’t care about, don’t understand, or don’t know about spez’s decisions. I’m sure spez would be happy to see all the protesting users who make him look bad leave.
