Like it or not, Reddit wants to "improve ad performance."

I left a couple of months ago. Couldn’t be happier.

The writing is on the wall. The leader thinks the Genius-with-hair-transplants is a superstar, despite destroying a globally recognised brand. Inspired by this, Spez is trying to get Reddit ready for an IPO. This means, maximise profits by any means.

      The website got flooded with Facebook-types years ago. A lot of the audience are just Facebook mums and dads that found out their anti-vaxx rants weren’t being heard anymore, and TikTok kids who just laugh the cat pics and upvote blindly without commenting.

      A lot of people. Many just don’t care that much about where they get cute cat pics from.
