When they said Reddit has 2000 employees I was shocked. what could they possibly do onto a website that is basically run by users (and sysadmins) and that is basically feature-wise mature? I really can’t figure out 2000 people working every day on Reddit… on what? just for a quick comparison, the whole IAmA was run by a single person (Victoria), so… what are they doing?
They are building Ads products, Avatars, NFT stores, Chat, Talk, RPAN. All the “growth” features that no one uses.
Then when no one uses them, they switch projects to shut them down (Talk, RPAN).
No offense to the people on it, but I could not stand the fucking RPAN era. It was like no matter what I did or what setting I changed every fourth fucking post was a livestream of some jackass on a guitar.
I don’t think it was such a bad feature, but they should make it easy to just turn these things off.
You forgot the new TikTok like video feature, ntz, ntz, ntz
and the spotify year end wrap ups
I’m out of the loop, what is this?
They were/are planning on separating the video from text, make it more like TikTok https://www.theverge.com/2023/3/7/23628130/reddits-video-watch-read-feeds-update-tiktok
