How is reddit post protest, did it really win over protesters? Did the ones who left make a dent? Or like all things before, did it ultimately do nothing?

The conflict has demonstrated how crucial Reddit’s community is to the site and also revealed the limits of that community’s power.

Power is irrelevant. Only power-tripping egomaniacs even notice an "issue" like that. The only significance of this event is that the voice of the community was heard, and the response from spez was a shameless attempt to shout us down.
