So long as they can pocket a few hundred milion from the IPO, Reddit management couldn’t give a monkey’s about any of their milions of users or the thousands of communities that made Reddit valuable in the first place. They are quite happily flushing all that down the toilet to get their big pay day. Why didn’t they just go non-profit like Wikipedia? That’s the only business model that makes sense for Reddit and is sustainable. But then nobody gets to become a multi millionaire, and we can all see which would be the bigger tragedy for u/spez.
