    And all they had to do was completely destroy the site and make every community on it unusable

      And they only needed 2000 employees to do that.

        What about their trusty slaves modding for a sense of belonging, pride and accomplishment?

          many of these supposed "slaves" are making $100k+ a year with affiliate links in sidebars and crap like that,

          especially for gambling and illegal/unregulated gambling related stuff

          eg @ /r/sportsbook /r/gambling /r/casino /r/<insert casino brand here> etc etc

          because of course audience + parasite hosting (google likes to rank reddit for lots of queries)

    I still hate reddit for ending its free API access.

    For the moment, anyway. Looks pretty toxic to me, but who knows.
