Reddit shat on their content creators and organisers. What did they expect? Reddit could and should be profitable, the fact it's not shows what a total shitshow it is. Spez clearly lost the poop challenge.

I can't stop laughing at the idea of Spez trying the poop challenge. (And failing it every five minutes.)

I'm pleasantly surprised though that the content quality is dropping really fast. I seriously wish for a failed IPO - Reddit is lost either way, but a failed IPO means that other businesses will think twice before doing the same.

Is there a way we can create a failed IPO?

Raising distrust among investors on the platform's ability to generate profits. Making it look like a risky but not profitable investment. Making it look like "if you invest your money here, consider it gone".

In large part, the protests, exodus, content deletion, spam/botting, and spez himself are doing this. We just need to do it harder.

I said it from the beginning -- the prolific content posters, the ones in it for the lulz and the community, will be the first to exit when you take away their mobile apps and such.
