Someone already said it above, but I don't know if the blame lies entirely with Reddit since deep links from Safari to the app work fine for some of us. I've never had issues getting linked deep into any comment thread, for exampl

I wasn't arguing that at all, only that things appear to be much better for SEs in Toronto than Vancouver for some reason. And I've said elsewhere in thread, I'd happily move my family down (I'm a US citizen) if I though

I wonder if this is a BC-specific problem, because Amazon and Shopify appear to be paying seniors in Toronto around $150-200k CAD/year+RSUs. With Google opening an office, and Snap already here, and Yelp already here, and Square alread

Sure, Rogan gave up hypothetical 10s of millions for this. But those millions required work and marketing and sponsor management, and those 10s of millions weren't guaranteed. With Spotify he just secured a guaranteed paycheck and a
