Demonstrated by the other post I made in this thread, Reddit has been showing its hand for a very long time but the analogy of frogs in pans of boiling water comes to mind with the user base.

Reddit will never go back to its roots of being 3 guys at college with an idea for a site. It will always be the money craving corporate beast its evolved into.
