Well, it is available for free either way. They pissed off their user base all for a horse that had already left the stable.

Look at their stock price. They are doing very well since IPO, and much of it was revenue from selling their data.
Google's $60m/yr is the only thing keeping them profitable.
Mozilla's business model isn't really something to emulate, even if the stock market doesn't really see it that way.
Not really. Lots of companies have valuable data they sell and have been in business for decades just fine. It's even better for reddit because it's user generated so they don't even have to do anything. The users who left during the API debacle are not the vast majority of users which are generally casual and do not give a single shit about what happened, much as tech people like to think otherwise.
