    Wrong.

    Reddit only needs to answer to shareholders. Users have never mattered.

      It’s the old adage:

      If something is free, you’re the product not the customer.

        Right. The users are the product. What do you think happens when a vendor runs out of product?

        Users matter.

          only if they earn money. otherwise they’re something you can sell to an advertiser - and that’s the only value they have.
