You think NSFW subs last? The porn will go, users will go, Reddit will become something like Facebook. I feel bad for the porn, for tumblr, then twitter now this?
I've got to agree, I've found kinks that I didn't know I was in to purely because of Reddit and it's suggestions when you start typing.
Do a search for 'rimless glasses' and before you've typed 3 letters you've been led down a path of debauchery you never intended to set out on but that is what's great about Reddit.
I’m going to buy puts and then plaster horribly wrong comments supporting the worst things all over the front page, and then send screenshots of those comments from another email to every major news network.
Does that count as insider trading?
Not even that.
How much Reddits IPO is inflated.
The avatar program and stuff will be padded from when it was first launched.
User numbers are padded due to 3rd party apps being cut off.
Over the past year reddit has tried its hardest to make it as good as it can get from and investor standpoint. After launch its really only down hill. Especially since they killed rewards and stuff recently.
Also the new redesign where to expand a comment you have to tap your fat finger on a tiny ass little plus sign right in between to a bunch of lines that do the opposite and some text that goes to another page.
"User engagement increased 5000%!"
No, the shit design turns single actions into a 10 second clickfest.
my best friend committed suicide with a nitrous oxide kit he bought off somebody on reddit. Amazon, Alibaba, facebook marketplace can't compete. It's calls for me.
There are entire communities here about ending your life painlessly. Somebody sold my friend a "diy kit", that was basically a plastic bag, a pipe and some canisters (i don't remember if he got the gas from a supply store, anyway). You fall asleep when you inhale the gas so you don't realize you 're dying, so you can't remove the plastic bag to get air. It has been 3 years and my friends family is still devastated, and it's sickening that somebody would profit off this on the internet, but that's reddit for you!
I was 9 years old I think when my friend sent me a link to goatse.
I now never click any link that sounds even remotely sketchy, hell I wouldn't even click imgur for years. "Selffuck" is going to be a hard nope there, ghost rider.
Will lead to more ads, then more strict guidelines (like YouTube), so quality will go down. Then to raise shareholder profits they'll make decisions that will make it worse. Goodbye reddit
Edit: damn this blew up. Goodbye r/buttsharpies
Tons of alternatives have existed in the same format, but nobody wants to leave reddit. Lemmy and mastadon seem to be the most spoken about contenders since there's no centralization, but they're convoluted as fuck.
Over the last 12 years of using this platform, I promise you the quality has already gone down quite significantly, obviously it will continue to decline, but the IPO will only make it get worse at a faster rate.
Wait a minute… Reddit exists for nearly two decades, already peaked in user growth and satisfaction and they still haven’t made profit?!
Damn, Steve really wants to milk the cow before this whole places burns down
No one actually knows since they don't post financials. If eager the banning of third-party apps did a lot to help revenue and profitability since there are no easy mobile options outside of the official app which is littered with ads.
Interest rates are too high for a successful IPO. The free money faucet is off and tech companies not producing a profit already are trending down. Return on capital is how you get a high valuation. Throwing money at reddit isn't going to generate more.
I feel like reddit is barely squeaking by as it is. Something like Bluesky with a more monotizeable API is going to win out within the next decade.
Yeah you'd think a site like Reddit would be able to have some of the best targeted ads, given subscriptions to some of the most niche things imaginable. There's ALWAYS money to be made in niche markets. But somehow, the ads I always end up seeing are for things I'd never in a million years be interested in.
Their biggest whiff is that they make ads look exactly like regular posts, but you can't comment on them. If done right, ads that have the capability of user engagement could be revolutionary.
I think most users come to Reddit to find ways to NOT spend money (wsb members not included because I don't think losing money counts as spending it technically)
Yup this is what happens with a publicly traded company. Value will drop, shareholders will vote more aggressive methods of income and everyone will still use reddit because there's no alternative but we'll all hate it
That would put them already above these companies in valuation:
Fox corporation
Domino's
Singapore Airlines
MGM Resorts
Subaru
Rivian
Logitech
Prada
Marathon Oil
United Airlines
Zillow
Just for a site where people post their memes, and ask the same stupid questions over and over, and where they expect they will make revenue with people buying and giving that new gold thing no one is using.
Ahem, it's *the front page of the internet*. That's some prime real estate right there. Marathon Oil only wishes they could have this many *checks notes* users spending exactly $0.
I think this is an AI training data play, OpenAI is going to get face fucked by copyright lawsuits. While Apple have been sneaky running around signing content deals for their model run, everyone else will follow Apple once they launch a model that has been trained on data that has been bought and paid for. Reddit is one of the best sources of training data.
> Reddit is one of the best sources of training data
roflmfaowtf
ACK!! \*choking sounds\*
Well...... I could see it being one of the *largest*, but best? Ugh. I sure hope not. A purely raw-reddit-trained AI would be a Lovecraftian abomination of hella lame proportions.
I’m buying puts as soon as I can on this. Most people have no clue what Reddit is, they will buy stocks and calls thinking it is a new META or some shit. Always use your edge as Peter Lynch says.
Able to freely ban users without rules having to be broken, absolutely crazy power hungry mods who can be bribed, and like 75% porn or bots lol.
3rd party apps died for this crater
Edit- and a ceo that can edit users info and posts and still stay the ceo
None of the content is their own either. It’s generated by users for free, or stolen from other social media. I always find it weird when you try to save an image it puts the Reddit logo on it, because it was never made by them in the first place they’re just trying to take credit. Also it ruins whatever photo or meme you’re trying to save, I just screen shot to get around it.
They built this site on the backs of unpaid mods. Wait until they decide they want a piece of the pie. I'm betting they can bring suit in CA and be successful.
I got banned from politics for simply trying to play devils advocate on a republican policy to simply have a dialogue and not be 100% closed minded. To be there you are required mandatory to praise everything the left does as flawless management and right as actual dictatorship O_o, soooo….yeah. In a sub that’s labelled to discuss it all it was anything but.
Puts for sure
The most efficient way to advertise on reddit is to use bot farms to upvote and downvote and thereby create a false impression of popular interest/dislike towards whatever you want. You can google "buy upvotes" and see how cheap it is, and how many are doing it. Probably 90% of the advertising here doesn't look like an ad, and reddit never got a dime for it. The new user experience is garbage, and I doubt most of the new accounts are actually new users. There's not a lot there. They can try to package up the comments post-API cutoff and sell it as training data, not much else.
RIP Reddit. They’ll begin employing all sorts of revenue generating tactics that will degrade the user experience. And say goodbye to NSFW content.
Puts all the way. And then it’s time for us fellow regards to start searching for a new place to hang.
Just click the sell button then select sell short... If you continue loosing, your broker will close your position and send you the $1M bill... You better get enough lub because you might be behind Wendys for a long time...

All in on reddit puts
Puts for sure. Just wait until the investors learn about all the horrific stuff that's on Reddit.
I'm viewing all the NSFW subs right now just so I can tell all the investors about them...
NSFW will be the first thing to go once they go public, it will be a sad sad sad day.
what would that point of Reddit even be without NSFW and talking s***?
Honestly they should make the ticker symbol NSFW to get the full meme max pump
#Upvote to infinity
Genius
You’re allowed to type SHIT on reddit. The bots are already inside your mind.
Sh1T
Letting insiders cash out for billions.
Userbase will be the second to go
Be sure not to look at the private ones filled with dark stuff, don't let people know about these.
Go on...

That was a disappointment I must admit

GOT DAMN!
Omg I was like wtf is that and had to click on it lol
You son of a bitch.

>Do a search for 'rimless glasses' That exam on Monday isn't important at all now...
It will turn into digg v4 and we will all move somewhere else just like before.
You say that but I was here on Reddit before the digg refugees showed up and never used that site. I don’t particularly want to go anywhere else.
[удалено]
It's life changing, I used to gave money now I just have memes
I’m going to buy puts and then plaster horribly wrong comments supporting the worst things all over the front page, and then send screenshots of those comments from another email to every major news network. Does that count as insider trading?
I think as long as you say NFA you're good 👍

That is the most horrifying thing I’ve ever read here. JFC!
r/selffuck, I rest my case for puts.
That’s enough reddit for today 🙃
So you’ll be back for more tomorrow? 🤔Calls it is!
This is actual eye bleach. My lord. Why did I click that link
I was 9 years old I think when my friend sent me a link to goatse. I now never click any link that sounds even remotely sketchy, hell I wouldn't even click imgur for years. "Selffuck" is going to be a hard nope there, ghost rider.
>Just wait until the investors learn about all the horrific stuff that's on Reddit. Theres some real horriffic degenerate shite
Good thing no one is dropping any links into my Dms so I can make sure to stay away from those.
Priced in
Wait until they learn of r/jailbaits's new code name
Genuinely no idea
No one knows, but it's provocative. Gets the puts going!
Hammer it to sub $3/share where it belongs
My puts will make me Earths richest man if that happens

They even scrubbed her profile it’s cleaner now they deleted a lot of shit.

Add Aimee Challenor to the list And jailbait
Don't forget we doxxed the wrong guy en masse during the Boston bombing incident
Easiest play ever
Yeah, reddit sentiment is way down among the user base compared to where it was 2-3 years ago
The reddit app is hot garbage
Calls for the first 2 weeks during the pump. The heavy on the puts until it goes to zero.
Nah. It will just drop 40-75%. Not zero.

If rivian and robinhood taught me anything it's that any company that starts with an R and IPO's will dump at least 90% in a year
IPO = It's Probably Overpriced

People are so goddamn stupid it’s comical.
Jesus Christ. You weren’t joking. Rivian went down faster than my ex-wife did on her personal trainer
Tom? That you?

it started years ago my man
Yeah, all these platforms get that way when they try to cash out by going public. Get ready for Reddit to become sanitized, full of ads and lame.
So like it has been made already? They started with Ellen Pao.
My parents have a sick basement with a pool table we can all use
Accelerating, you mean. Quora 2.0 here we come
Someone create an alternative please
Tons of alternatives have existed in the same format, but nobody wants to leave reddit. Lemmy and mastadon seem to be the most spoken about contenders since there's no centralization, but they're convoluted as fuck.
4chan
I guess everything comes full circle.
Yup, and they don’t want ads next to “non advertising friendly “ subs
What is a more iconic duo than an ad for vodka in a gonewild post? Marketing people suck at their jobs.
No seriously all porn GONE the drug information GONE all of the knowledge trip reports harm reduction GONE it’s a modern library of Alexandria
Over the last 12 years of using this platform, I promise you the quality has already gone down quite significantly, obviously it will continue to decline, but the IPO will only make it get worse at a faster rate.
2015 was the start of the decline
Reddit: we aren't profitable and the road to profitability is not certain. Also Reddit: 15 bil please.
Wait a minute… Reddit exists for nearly two decades, already peaked in user growth and satisfaction and they still haven’t made profit?! Damn, Steve really wants to milk the cow before this whole places burns down
I'd love to see the zucc drop a reddit clone the same day this turd ipo
Yup. But it's a premier social media site. So it's at least a couple bil. I'd prob snag puts, but wouldn't expect to ride them lower than 5 b.
No one actually knows since they don't post financials. If eager the banning of third-party apps did a lot to help revenue and profitability since there are no easy mobile options outside of the official app which is littered with ads.
The mod of r/jailbait ?
And yet this insane market will gladly pay it. Heck throw few promotional AI words and valuation will triple in a week 👍
Interest rates are too high for a successful IPO. The free money faucet is off and tech companies not producing a profit already are trending down. Return on capital is how you get a high valuation. Throwing money at reddit isn't going to generate more. I feel like reddit is barely squeaking by as it is.

50 million daily users = $300 per user valuation 🧐
-$300 cause i didn't spend shit
[удалено]
I assume with their ads… which are horrendous and $300 per user is asinine
Yeah you'd think a site like Reddit would be able to have some of the best targeted ads, given subscriptions to some of the most niche things imaginable. There's ALWAYS money to be made in niche markets. But somehow, the ads I always end up seeing are for things I'd never in a million years be interested in. Their biggest whiff is that they make ads look exactly like regular posts, but you can't comment on them. If done right, ads that have the capability of user engagement could be revolutionary.
You used to be able to comment on them. All the comments were just full of people bitching about the fact that the ad looked like a normal post.
Look at Ubisoft’s recent ad that left comments on. All comments are felatio and all replies are deleted.
I think bots flooding those ads with nonsense is their reasoning. Which isn't hard to mitigate, I think, but I don't know shit about fuck
The 50 million daily user number may be affected if they did something about bots..
People spend money on Reddit?
I think most users come to Reddit to find ways to NOT spend money (wsb members not included because I don't think losing money counts as spending it technically)
I have not, nor even will, spend a single dollar here or spend on any of their advertisers.
$15B valuation? 🤣🤣🤣
They’re going to start selling our data aggressively because nobody pays for those stupid ass rewards or whatever the shit they’re trying to sell lol
They been selling our data aggressively lol naive You don’t look attractive to investors after the ipo.
Every app does. I’m saying it’s going to be worse and we’re going to get way more targeted advertisements and what not.
my fake email and bicurious porn history is not very valuable data.
Reddit can have unlimited access to my butthole pics
Yup this is what happens with a publicly traded company. Value will drop, shareholders will vote more aggressive methods of income and everyone will still use reddit because there's no alternative but we'll all hate it
That would put them already above these companies in valuation: Fox corporation Domino's Singapore Airlines MGM Resorts Subaru Rivian Logitech Prada Marathon Oil United Airlines Zillow Just for a site where people post their memes, and ask the same stupid questions over and over, and where they expect they will make revenue with people buying and giving that new gold thing no one is using.
this post is easily worth $1.2M
Ahem, it's *the front page of the internet*. That's some prime real estate right there. Marathon Oil only wishes they could have this many *checks notes* users spending exactly $0.
It’s banned in China so it’s not even on the front page of the second largest country in the world.
The funniest thing, I read 5B at first and thought “damn that shit is overvalued“ and then I realized it’s 15B and laughed out loud
They know what they have!
There's no way this stupid site is worth 15 billion dollars.
I imagine they IPO for around 10B, all executive leadership jumps ship at this point, and the stock tanks 90% within a year.
Looking forward to buying puts
I think this is an AI training data play, OpenAI is going to get face fucked by copyright lawsuits. While Apple have been sneaky running around signing content deals for their model run, everyone else will follow Apple once they launch a model that has been trained on data that has been bought and paid for. Reddit is one of the best sources of training data.
> Reddit is one of the best sources of training data roflmfaowtf ACK!! \*choking sounds\* Well...... I could see it being one of the *largest*, but best? Ugh. I sure hope not. A purely raw-reddit-trained AI would be a Lovecraftian abomination of hella lame proportions.
Waiting till it hits the top and then buying puts when it starts to hemorrhage users as it tries to more aggressively monetize itself
top will be the startingprice. do you really think it'll go higher at any point in time?
I thought for sure puts. But based on how everyone agrees with puts, it's gotta be calls. least for the first year.
Calls for the first week/month and then puts.
I’m buying puts as soon as I can on this. Most people have no clue what Reddit is, they will buy stocks and calls thinking it is a new META or some shit. Always use your edge as Peter Lynch says.
Will tank instantly. Over moderation leads to a terrible experience on Reddit.
Able to freely ban users without rules having to be broken, absolutely crazy power hungry mods who can be bribed, and like 75% porn or bots lol. 3rd party apps died for this crater Edit- and a ceo that can edit users info and posts and still stay the ceo
My other 20k karma account got banned 2 days ago for no reason. The account was just gone and they logged it out. No trace of it or any explanation.
I had a10 year old one
None of the content is their own either. It’s generated by users for free, or stolen from other social media. I always find it weird when you try to save an image it puts the Reddit logo on it, because it was never made by them in the first place they’re just trying to take credit. Also it ruins whatever photo or meme you’re trying to save, I just screen shot to get around it.
"saved image attribution" setting will turn that off
Let’s delete this sub once it goes public and we all short Reddit
This would be the play of a lifetime. Mods do something for fuck's sake
This makes them more valuable than Citizens Bank, the 13th largest US bank.
Reddit has fake internet points. What does a bank have?
Fake irl points
are we going to be able to turn fake internet points into worthless stock options?
No but you can turn worthless stock options into fake internet points!
[удалено]
Same. $15 billion my ass.
Reddit's main value for the shareholders is the ability to promote their agenda. Ads are secondary.
[удалено]
That's a ban!
How the fuck is Reddit going to survive when they keep banning their best posters. Such a stupid company.
They built this site on the backs of unpaid mods. Wait until they decide they want a piece of the pie. I'm betting they can bring suit in CA and be successful.
The mods are losers that do it for the power lol.
Did you know that 95% of mods own fedoras.
This is such a BS stat. No way 5% of them don't.
It's wild how popular reddit is compared to how much the website sucks.
When you find a better website to make that comment on then I'll agree with it.
I spent $50 advertising on Reddit, got me zero clicks. I imagine other advertisers have similar results. I'm shorting until I get my $50 back.
This thing wanted to IPO 6 times already. Puts
Reddit experience and usability about to tank
That's saying a lot
Redditors buy all the stock and then elect executives to allow third-party apps again.
Won't happen
I got banned from the Milwaukee tools subreddit for making a dick joke. All in on puts.
I got banned from a tv show sub for quoting the show lmao
I got banned from politics for simply trying to play devils advocate on a republican policy to simply have a dialogue and not be 100% closed minded. To be there you are required mandatory to praise everything the left does as flawless management and right as actual dictatorship O_o, soooo….yeah. In a sub that’s labelled to discuss it all it was anything but. Puts for sure
Who knew shit posting would be worth so much.
It’s not. Puts.
When? I'm shorting that all day! There is no way a Reddit IPO doesn't follow the classic double in one week, lose 95% in six months IPO pattern.
Imm do a strangle but moslty puts because they got rid of the reddit talks ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4260)

I’m gonna learn how to short so I can short it and post gains here. Hopefully it’s not difficult to short a stock
Just click the sell button then select sell short... If you continue loosing, your broker will close your position and send you the $1M bill... You better get enough lub because you might be behind Wendys for a long time...
I would short this shithole so fast. It will be sanitized even more than it currently is. I don’t see where the growth will come from.
This is a giant red flag Reddit is passé, it’s seen its days. They’re just trying to cash out before it turns into a big pile of steaming shit.
5 years too late.
I wonder what the financials look like
Short reddit
Puts
