Well, don't piss off the content makers, or the content consumers.
- WellThenGood 3y agoUh doesn't Reddit owe its community 10% per sama's Series B article https://blog.samaltman.com/reddit https://blog.samaltman.com/reddit ? "So, the Series B Investors are giving 10% of our shares in this round to the people in the reddit community, and I hope we increase community ownership over time." Whatever happened to this? Will we end up getting it before or after sama gives us UBI, open AI, and fusion completely altruistically?
- keyle 3y agoTo be fair I think Reddit predates "web 2.0" by a big gap. Which is probably why they were successful; they did it before everyone else.
- detaro 3y agothey didn't predate it. Reddit was founded when "web 2.0" was the hot new buzzword.
- fknorangesite 3y ago> The term was coined by Darcy DiNucci in 1999[3] and later popularized by Tim O'Reilly and Dale Dougherty at the first Web 2.0 Conference in 2004. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_2.0 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_2.0 Reddit was launched in 2005 (which I admit is a year or two earlier than I remember/would have guessed).
- JJMcJ 3y agoI think 2004 is when the concept really gained currency.
- ric2b 3y agoSo no one remembers Digg anymore, and how Reddit initially grew because Digg was pissing off its own community.
