Not all of them. I saw that members of the Hearthstone subreddit's mod team have come down hard on the side of Twitter, and don't see any issue with the current behavior. I wouldn't be surprised if the same was true of a lot of the smaller, more niche subreddits.
I don't keep tabs on any of the larger subreddits anymore, but I also wouldn't be surprised if some of them decided to stay with X. A lot of the people still modding are Spez bootlickers, and Spez LOVES Musk. We might even see a sitewide rule from Spez to force Twitter links to remain allowed.

I remember enjoying that game till blizzard decided they align with dictatorships that censor the desire for freedom. I legit never went back after the boycott and knowing this new detail really reaffirmed that.
