I'm still curious as to what is going to happen on the 1st and moving forward. I haven't seen much news about whether or not moderation focused apps/bots will still work despite Reddit's promises.

My bet is that effective moderation is going to drop significantly. Spam is going to increase to take advantage and trolls (whether to usual kind or as a form of protest) will run rampant. The user experience is going to suffer for the users that currently "don't care". And then Reddit will die.
