Roughly 6x the users and 7x the traffic. “Thousands” is a bit dramatic. Reddit is a massively popular site now, pretty sure it’s among the top 10 most visited in the world.

We can just look at both's recent reports:
Reddit: 121 million "daily active unique users"

Facebook: 3.58 billion "family daily active people"

I'd definitely consider both "mainstream".
(I know plenty non-tech and "normal" people who use reddit.)
