Reddit Inc. is weighing feedback from early meetings with potential investors in its initial public offering that it should consider a valuation of at least $5 billion, according to people familiar with the matter, even as it is estimated below that figure in the volatile market for shares of private companies.
Some huge validation. It’s not profitability. It’s does it make sense. Many companies forgo profit for growth. That’s common.
Wework never made sense at its valuation to me.
Same with Resdit. What is reddits path to profitability ? What value does it create? With their admins and mods being dipshits. It’s a liability to a company and not an asset. I would never buy from a company advertising on Reddit.

How much was WeWork valued at without turning a profit?
