Was there even a mass exodus? I largely avoid Reddit now, but I do kind of doubt that they’ve been hurt in any meaningful way by all the protests and people leaving…

Definitely agree on your last point. When I see a community like this, I try to report it to the admins, because indeed, it gives a bad look.
Report them? Why? How else is a community supposed to get started? It needs probably only a handful of type A people posting stuff regularly and then that brings the crowd.
I agree it’s not a great look because we’re in the established age of the internet… but what else is there to do?
I guess we don’t talk about the same kind of scenario.
You describe one where the creator did it in good faith, started posted for a bit, but isn’t that active. That’s completely fine, I agree with you.
I am talking about people who started dozens or even hundreds of communities, just to leave them there without even posting a single thing. Looks like a power trip to me, and I could understand why newcomers might be reluctant in participating in such communities (especially if they come from Reddit)
I see what you mean, I think I agree with you then.
Happy to hear, have a good one!
