I don't know. Would you buy Reddit shares when it IPOs if you saw what the users were doing and how they felt?

I wouldn’t have regardless of their behaviour now. To me they don’t have any long term value proposition

Honestly... yeah. After seeing how Netflix proved that you can give zero fucks about what your customers say and that they will give you more money after you bend them over, I see no reason why Reddit doubling-down on monetized bullshit on the platform wouldn't be equally successful. These big corps realize that no matter how bad it gets, they will always find paying users as long as you give them their dopamine fix, protests or no protests.

Well as long as nomies pay, got nothing to hide and don't care... We all suffer.
