The article is a nothingburger, but I can see how it could make people on Reddit a little jumpy given what happened to Twitter. Granted, if Elon Musk bought Reddit, I'd just leave, and I assume many others would as well. I'd be sad about it though.

There's some truly lovely, talented, and generous people across many subreddits. I think many would leave, but man it really would be a huge bummer
