Given how rigged the entire experience became over the years, what with the relationships between supermods and admins, the number of openly broken promises and the sheer amount of asshattery involved in everyday happenings, the neverending lies, and then marginalizing the visually impaired in one stroke with a response that seemed like a useless long form of “so what are you gonna do about it?” just like they did with the API call debacle, this seems far more like a toilet factory reserving shares in shit for its biggest shitters more than anything else. And at least a toilet factory would have something tangible in porcelain to show for it in the end, but Reddit’s just a huge steaming pile of ad riddled bot shit now.

I think this IPO reserve probably sounds reallllly good to both the very guilty and the very gullible, and to absolutely no one in between.
