undefined> people don’t want to want hours or days with no replies to their post.
True, but at the same time the people replying to them the most are probably the ones that are going to move away, leaving only an empty land lacking actual value. I wasn't there when Digg died, but I guess it was a similar process.
The thing with the digg death was that there was already a Reddit community there; it was smaller perhaps but there would almost always be someone to read your post.
Theres a line of popularity that matters, sure, but the % activity of a place is much more important than just sheer numbers
