> Did the people who found reddit involved with it anyway now?
It was founded by three people:
Aaron Swartz, who committed suicide over bullshit charges.
Alexis Ohanian, who resigned from reddit's board in June this year.
Steve Huffman (AKA spez) who's still around as a CEO.
But nowadays the latter two try to erase Swartz's legacy (https://i.imgur.com/a3dARxi.jpg https://i.imgur.com/a3dARxi.jpg).
- staticelf 6y agoWow, that's really disgusting. They should be ashamed of themselves.
- jml7c5 6y agoI'm pretty sure there's more nuance to this story than you're suggesting.
- rcxdude 6y agoSwartz was not a co-founder, their companies merged 6 months later (undeniably however he was heavily involved in the early days of reddit)
