Totally not suspicious timing at all.

Also if you're willing to visit reddit, the comments under the post are great. They're not fooling anyone.

The majority doesn't have to go anywhere. Just the most engaged people (the ones who will be visiting /r/place, for example) who provide the value that keeps the other ones visiting and viewing ads. Once they're the only ones left the site will be basically a zombie.

It takes time for giants to fall. Digg is still around to this day, and Reddit will likely be around a decade from now too. It just won't be the "front page of the Internet" any more.
