While you may be right about most, I'll simply speak for myself and say that as a reddit user since 2009 with an embarrassingly large amount of reddit karma, I've deleted my reddit apps, bookmarks, and browser extension this week. My plan is to be more active on this site instead, and perhaps other smaller communities. It's been disgusting to me for the past few years how rare civil discourse has become on reddit, and this was basically the final straw for me.

HN has 300k daily active users; Reddit has 52M.
It would take less than 1% of Redditors moving to HN to upend the entire culture here and make this place look like Reddit 2.0.

While maybe true, that’s completely at odds with the site’s “experiment” goal and hypothesis. I suggest you take a look at the welcome page for this site once more.
Nah, that 'culture' will get downvoted into oblivion.
"Please don't post comments saying that HN is turning into Reddit. It's a semi-noob illusion, as old as the hills."
