I agree 100% that the correct course of action for Reddit is to remain the same so far as growth keeps moving forward and no alternative threats pop up. My point is that the growth credit should go to those who built the machine that is still being used almost exactly as they left it. What I can say is that Yishan was successful leading the reddit team in keeping up with reddit's growth from an infrastructure standpoint. No small task, especially since Reddit was crashing and burning all the time before he came on board but you don't see reddit go down due to load nearly as much these days (even at 5x usage). Bottom line, praise him for that -- keeping up with the growth, not driving growth that probably would have occurred regardless of who was in the captain's chair.
