Have you seen how it is lately? It’s a glorified tabloid. It’s largely used for pop culture gossip. People know it’s slop, and they don’t care. They use it anyways.
Reddit is far from the days of being a modernized tech BBS. At least 10 years removed from it. In it’s current incarnation it’s an interactive daily newspaper with Bat Boy stories on the front cover. That’s what they’re selling. And it does sell.
They pretended that the content was written by humans. And Google needed data upon which to train its AI. I don’t think there’s any value in that, but if you are an AI investor, you might want to ride your bubble.
The rest of us know that Reddit is full of bots and you shouldn’t be training anything on it. But if you’re looking at data from three or more years ago, then maybe that’s more human written. Of course Reddit and Google deny that bots dominate, but we know they’re lying and they’re trying to make money off of the bubble anyway, so don’t trust them.
They’re surely juicing the numbers that they show investors. It’s all about showing that they are still growing in some way or another. Nothing else matters to them. Much to the detriment of the users. I moved away from Google many many years ago. Have been moving away from Reddit over the past several months as well.
Yea, like their failed video shorts in an attempt to compete with YouTube (which I also don’t use anymore). Basically they both claim user engagement is the user watches like 10 seconds of a video, which is hard to move away from in that time.
I still don’t get “Reddit stock”. What value does a trumped up BBS offer?

50% is at least bots, we know from that. it got worst they used AI to ban people.

same method as FB, they pretend there is still engagement, by drumming up interactions.

They place ads and sell reddit gold also user and site data. That extremely valuable
