The title is from this video, although that one is very short.

I'm glad I've given up on Reddit after the blackout, this proposal to vote out moderators will only encourage raiding, as only the people who pay attention to the votes will decide who stays on. And let's not forget that one of the cornerstones if Reddit has always been that you can make your own sub.

Anyone shorting Reddit stock the moment they do their IPO? I would if I could lol

Given that the Reddit community is known for that whole GameStop debaucle, it's certainly far from impossible...

At this rate their IPO might go so poorly that there's not much to short

Someone will buy Reddit, doesn't they'll care about the company. People buy companies to kill them off. The stock market is not a rational creature.
