I may choose to move my 'front page of the internet' here to snapzu, but I don't see myself ever abandoning reddit entirely. Why? It's those same key features you talked about with the smaller communities. /r/exmormon, /r/lgg2, /r/pbsideachannel, /r/cynicalbrit ... they're all very tight knit communities that I doubt could ever transfer over without a formal 'this subreddit is moving to snapzu' type of movement. While these smaller communities remain important to people, reddit will always be a thing.
I also don't think Reddit is going anywhere.
