    Down to my bones I believe what happened to reddit was the plan all along. Yes back in the day there was more community that we made but it doesn’t change the fact the dbags were, are, and will be steering the boat… that said my first guided comment felt dope and going to the lounge was fun.

      It’s hard to say. I think it was obvious they planned to use ads and gold to break even, but it took many years to begin monetizing aggressively. Once new Reddit and the app came around, and they started making noise about an IPO, it became obvious.
