A lot of Redditors hate the Reddit IPO | Reddit warned us that its users were a risk factor, and boy do they sound excited about shorting its stock.::Reddit seems like a likely candidate for a meme stock. But the actual reaction suggests that r/WallStreetBets isn’t going to send the stock to the moon.

Huffman's wages of $193 million per year is absurd. That's double what Tim Apple makes. It's almost 4x what Microsoft's CEO, Satya Nadella, makes, and 4x what Netflix's CEO, Reed Hastings, makes. During the writer's strike a big deal was made over David Zaslav's compensation, but even that's not as much as Huffman makes.

Imagine they reduced Steve Huffman's wages by $100 million per year. For that much, they could give the top 10,000 moderators $10,000 each per year. For some, that might not match the work they put in, but it would sure be a nice gesture, and would make them feel like the work they were doing was appreciated. Meanwhile, Huffman would still be one of the highest paid CEOs in the world.

P.S. stop saying "spez", the guy has a real life name, and that real life name should be the one that's tarnished.
