While I don't want to support reddit or turbo capitalism, I think a viewpoint that is often missed here is the fact, that a fair share of those subreddits are created and moderated by people that create and hold together communities, especially in the beginning of the sub. There are also a lot of cases were the platform is used to cross link to other platforms and gain profits there.

Just take some popcorn and watch their IPO crash spectacularly.

I wonder if people in r/wallstteetbets don't decide to short it out, but on the other hand, U/spez will do all in its power to block people calling for it.

Look at that. Now there's a face who only cares about money. Kids, if you look into a mirror and have that kind of face, you may be an asshole. Just saying.

It’s easy to justify not paying bots. /s

Honestly, you can barely see the gentle glow of the flames from way up here.

I do not miss reddit.

This dude underestimates how fucking crazy people are. He keeps this kind of thing up, he's going to end up in the news for some nutter doing something unpleasant to him.
