The idea of these people expecting for profit companies to not be ruthlessly profit driven is hilarious.

The idea of these people expecting for profit companies to not be ruthlessly profit driven is hilarious.
- local_crmdgeon 3y agoSpez even said this - they're very profit hungry because they're not profitable. Remember those cool projects that Google did at their height? That's what profitability looks like. Reddit is hungry and has been for a long time.
- unsui 3y agoyeah, it's a ridiculous idea that a company that has repeatedly stated in the past that its focus is on the community and 3rd-party app outreach would renege on its mission to foster and support the communities that made it a place with any value whatsoever. ridiculous
- kelipso 3y agoPeople talking about how the snake oil salesman was so convincing and believable is still hilarious.
- kevincox 3y agoTreating your users well can be very good for long-term profits. The problem is that Reddit is looking to squeeze them short term for a good IPO.
