Good. After killing all third party apps the site started to suck more.

The users, and only users, need to be the shareholders. A bunch of useless venture capitalist parasites should never again be allowed to own and destroy our public spaces.

Reddit is going to be a prime short opportunity on IPO.

2024 is literally a year of leaving Reddit for Lemmy.

Because 2023 wasn't?

To elaborate: what Reddit did this year wasn't enough for a (major) mass migration. I very much doubt even more ads will deter those that have stuck around so far. Perhaps there'll be a trickle, but I don't see anything happening like what was the case for Digg back in the day.

This will trigger an enshittification cycle.

    1. Underperformance per-quarter resulting in anti-user actions to increase profits.
    1. Users leave because of anti-user actions.
    1. Profits will decrease as users leave until the end of quarter.
    1. Return to Step 1.

that's what they get for perma-banning all their human users.

Remember when the IPO was supposed to be in 2021? Then it was 2022? 2023?

Since there's a paywall, I can't see the whole article but does this imply there was still positive ad growth and they just missed their goal or there was no or negative ad growth?
