Will they go the way of MySpace or will this truly blow over in a few week?

I think it depends what you mean by "survive" really.

Even if it persists with a large number of users. "Reddit" will still be dead IMO. I don't know what this new thing is but it is nothing like what Reddit used to be.

And the people who wanted... whatever the old Reddit was, just won't be there anymore (people like us I guess).

It's hard to pinpoint exactly what these qualities are but I think I speak for most of us when I say it feels like they've been getting eroded for a while now. I'm glad we might get the chance at a bit of a reset.
