It’s not really about self-respect or they would have never started modding. It’s something they felt was important at the time and likely still feel their contributors are worth sticking around for a while. It may take some a little longer to move their community over here but it will happen in the next few months. Reddit is making it very difficult to continue.
The problem is if you leave, someone else comes in, takes it over and can’t do anything to annoy the admins.
At this point the mods are just tanking, and finding new ways to become problematic. Which hopefully people will see. The admins had an easy way to make this work and instead they are just struggling to keep up with this bullshit.
Hoping any that are still staging protests are doing it to keep the mess visible to remaining users, current staff & potential investors. Reddit cannot retain any one of those without the other two.
I’m sorry, but any mod that gets a message threatening them like that and stays on has zero self respect. It’s a volunteer job for god’s sake!

The only option I see is for users to overwrite their comments and for mods to delete their subs if they don’t come to an agreement.
I’m still giving them time, but sooner or later I’ll change my comments and delete my subreddits (even they’re just small ones).
You can’t delete subs, only set them private, and then reddit just appoint new mods to open it up again.
