The only people that matter to the popularity of a sub are the people making the content and posting.
The average lurker is there for information and interest. If the people who actually contribute content, ie. Not the average lurker, are not happy with the changes and are being vocal about it and leaving as a result of the new moderation team trying to end the protest then the quality, frequency, usefulness of the content (basically what keeps the lurkers there) goes to shit and the sub becomes a ghost town.
Sure the average user might not care about the protests but the average user doesnt post or comment/offer the information and co tent that keeps the subs interesting/alive.
Its amazing that you people think the people who made reddit what it was are not important to the website and somehow lurkers who contribute nothing are.
Edit: oh! Look at that, youve been here a few days and have 0 posts and a hanful of comments that have all got negative votes. Almost everything you have said has been to insult the people you are replying to.
Frankly mate. Go back to reddit. I think you would fit i a little better there with all the other lurkers that you so love.

You are literally unhinged I mean that with no due disrespect. Go back to Facebook.

If anyone is unhinged here its clearly the literal troll who is posting random nonsense and signing off as spiderman.
Do you see the irony here?
I sctually do see some but I am now genuinely curious what your point of view may be? If you’re not a pussy feel free to elaborate.
