Sales/BizDev/relations and engineering/product would probably be my guess.
That said 2k people is a LOT, and it's not like the site itself is very high-tech or really pushing things forward. It's a aggregator of content with comments...nothing really advanced.
Yeah, 2k people is overkill.
- gremlinsinc 3y agoHN is basically just that and it's mostly one guy moderating everything. I'm sure there's a few more for tech stuff but HN hardly ever changes and still feels like 2010, but that's the beauty plus it isn't monetized other than promoting yc companies, etc. Reddit should be ran more like HN or even craigslist. Ppl never wanted a js heavy UI change. they liked the bare bones old school aesthetic. It gave that feeling of nostalgia, one of the last early web apps. If Reddit never did a redesign, never hired more staff than really need, they'd definitely be profitable by now.
- dredmorbius 3y agoThere are additional moderators (and I believe that's plural), though dang is the public voice. sctb was previously on the mod team, but left YC a few years ago. He's recently reappeared in comments though.
