developments to this point:

    Question:

    How do you address the concerns of users who feel that Reddit has become increasingly profit-driven and less focused on community engagement?

    Answer:

    We’ll continue to be profit-driven until profits arrive. Unlike some of the 3P apps, we are not profitable.

    This is where I lost all hope.

    There’d be all kinds of better ways to go about making profit / becoming financially sustainable. This is blatant ignorance and mismanagement, without hearing or seeing anything. Complete mismanagement.
