Ummm...same reason as JS? Why do you think they need more speed to the point they need c++? Do you think finding c++ devs easier than python devs?

- _8j50 3y agoIt's not really about cost, it's about convincing investors CEO dude is in control and can make reddit profitable for their planned IPO. "We spent a shitton of money migrating to C++ and hiring expensive and harder to replace C++ talent to optimize shit" is not a good selling point.
