Yeah I don’t think mods and “power users” that stayed after last year are necessarily against reddit succeeding, just not willing to buy in at a 6.5bil valuation for a company that can’t turn a profit and lost 90+ mil last year and 700+ cumulative. The CEO got 193 mil last year it’s clear where their priorities are. And after the bad will they gained last year burning mods and third party apps it’s not a big surprise many are watching with a big ol’ bucket of popcorn.

A private company doesn’t really need to turn a profit…
Even publicly traded companies just need to do it because it effects shareholder price.
With tax shenanigans, it’s often better for a private company to never turn a profit.
If profit was important, they could have just paid the CEO 100 million and turned a 3 million profit.
