reddit is a worth a lot. the influence it yields is incredible. the entire site is a controlled psyop that is turning the entirety of younger generations into trannies and faggots, and brainwashing them with whatever propaganda that they choose to serve to them. the thing that makes reddit so sinister is that nobody can tell that the entire thing is controlled, so they really think that every person holds the same viewpoints as them so the social pressure to conform is immense

I regularly manipulate content on Reddit to promote certain things. Here's a quick guide. They say they have controls to prevent mass upvoting, but they're not really that strong. All you need is an initial push to stay on the front page. As long as the IPs are unique and the accounts have some age, there's nothing that will stop you. The second thing is to consider local and niche subs. The jannies there are not as active and you can easily pump stuff to the top which will get a ton of eyeballs. Lastly, I have other accounts which will mass report articles as "low quality sources" which baits the pseuds hard into deleting my competition articles. Don't forget the power of negative advertising, I promote shitcoins on /r/buttcoin all the time and it leads to hundreds of thousands of views.

Is there any chance that an IPO would actually force more transparency onto reddit. I started browsing reddit in 2008 or 2009 and by 2013 it had gone to shit. I still use it sometimes, but only for certain niche communities. It's not a place for political discussion in any form, you'll just get permabanned.

The worst thing about reddit is that no users even know how it works anymore. From the beginning until like 2012 or 2013, your upvotes and downvotes actually mattered. The number of upvotes you saw on a post was the total number of upvotes minus the total number of downvotes. Then they changed it and made it "fuzzy" so that it didn't display the exact number of upvotes/downvotes, but an aggregate number that is based on the total number. This was ostensibly done to combat bots, but the reality is that it makes the site easier to control for admins.

It's really insane when you think about how much reddit changed in just 10 or 11 years. Back in 2012, Ron Paul was regularly upvoted to the top of reddit. Redditors were doing "money bombs" to fundraise for Ron Paul. Subreddits like r/fatpeoplehate were also incredibly popular at the time. The jailbait subs/porn subs and r/coontown really weren't ever big, but it was cool that reddit explicitly supported free speech and allowed those communities to exist.

After 2013 with all the Ellen Pao stuff it just became faggot tranny central station. Libtards go there to get marching orders and then disseminate. Normies who are retards go on reddit and think that they are seeing normie opinions, not hyper leftist opinions. It's a shame. We must do everything possible to lower the value of the stock

that's why I said that. it might pop but short term the market measures sentiment, but longer term it measures fundamentals. if it pops it will eventually come back down to reality because there is no cashflow to support the value, there is no growth narrative to support multiples. the website is mature. they don't do heavy B2B. there is no money. they already have reddit gold/blue checkmarks. what more can/will they do? once they IPO investors might want to see changes and change is often disruptive to the community. I don't think social media especially reddit is a good choice long term. where is their facebook like button? the ad network? they aren't adtech like other firms. they're simply a forum with user metric collection

The fact of the matter is, we need to be doing everything possible to make the stock dump hard upon opening. Whatever it takes. I hate reddit with every fiber of my being. I want that site destroyed. They have banned over 20 of my accounts over the years, all for political purposes/wrongthink. Not once did I ever intentionally break the rules, use racial slurs, spam the site, or anything. I would just argue in my local subreddit and then get permabanned without warning for "creating drama" which is against the rules. And mods never specify what "creating drama" entails. Plenty of arguments and disagreements happen in the subreddit, that's what discussion boards and comment sections are for. But basically if you're winning an argument and no one can prove you wrong and they don't like what you're arguing...then you get permabanned, not just from the subreddit, but the whole site. And you can't just create a new username because they track IPs and then ban the new account.

I literally pay for a VPN that I use primarily to post on reddit and create new usernames when my old ones get banned. I hate the moderation team to the core. I found the identity of one of the local mods, and if I ever ran into them in public I would yell at them and maybe even dump a beer on them if I was at a bar or something. I'd cause a scene and make them scared. Is there any way we could pay homeless people to sit in front of reddit headquarters and shoot meth and masturbate all day?

This is a big part of it. Reddit is legitimately one of the most powerful social engineering tools available for Millenials and generations following them. It isn't the only one, but it is highly influential and great at what it does. If Reddit tells hipster types to drink piss, they're drinking piss. If it tells them cars are bad, cars are bad. Given the need for an increased control over the population due to rapidly deteriorating conditions for most people, Reddit is going to be a tool that will come in handy.

Me personally? No, but I want that to happen, because I hate reddit and what they've done to society. It's not even a good site anymore. Reddit calls itself "The Front Page of The Internet" and back from like 2008-2012 or 2013 it was true. You would see stories, news articles, videos, memes, and plenty of stuff on Reddit before you'd see it on facebook or any news site or any other forum. Due to how the algorithm worked, it really felt like you saw the best new content online right away, before most other people did.

Then by the time Trump was running for president that changed. That's when I began to see memes and stories and content on facebook about a day or two before I'd see them on reddit. The site started going downhill in 2012/2013 and by 2016 it was absolute garbage. And yet somehow it keeps gaining users and growing as a website. When I was in college a decade ago, most people did not know what reddit was. If I told a classmate of mine that I wasted free time browsing reddit, they wouldn't know what that was, and just mentioning it would be weird. The only normies who knew about reddit were hyper lib normies because Jon Stewart would talk about reddit and shill it on The Daily Show.

Now everyone knows about reddit. My truck driver friend browses reddit on his phone on his downtime.

this is why reddit sucks. The only value is trying to game the system if you're a content creator or trying to sell some product then shilling it in the comments. There's no value in discussions. It's pointless to try to discuss anything with people.

Onlyfans girls post nudes on r/gonewild, then you click their profile and see link to OF. That's probably the most common and egregious.

You also have regular youtube and twitch creators who post clips in the hopes of getting upvoted and more people finding out about their channel.

People post shirts or whatever that they make, and then if it gets upvoted a lot there's someone in comments going "omg where can I get one" and someone else (prob OP under alt) posts link to their site.

it sucks because the general interface of reddit is pretty good. The only downside was that comments always favor the most normie and mainstream opinions, but it was okay because you could sort by controversial or just scroll and read all comments anyway.

>I wonder if paying influencers on social media could be monetized by a social media company directly. that is how I think you could monetize the site in a way it hasn't been done before and show growth and also capture some of the revenue that is being left behind since those deals happen off the platform.

the real problem is that reddit is stuck in the past. It was a truly great website in 2008 and 2009. It had all the best parts of Digg without the shitty parts. Great for text posts, images/memes, and even mp4 or webm video clips eventually. But that's about it, and video stuff still doesn't always work well. On a computer you need to download the extension "reddit enhancement suite" for the site to work properly. Personally I just think the people who work at reddit suck dick. Like, if you're living in the Bay Area, and you work at reddit (lmao), you're only there because you couldn't get a job at FAANG companies or Twitter. Working for Reddit is unironically less prestigious even than working for Uber or Doordash (on the dev/corporate side). As a result, reddit sucks. The Reddit App itself genuinely sucks. Third party apps like Reddit is Fun (RiF) are way better.

Even on a computer...going to reddit.com fucking sucks and it's practically unnavigable. You have to go to old.reddit.com just to view the site in its original configuration, which is more suited for PC usage. Basically a few years ago reddit revamped the whole site to look better on mobile, and as a result it looks like shit on a computer unless you use old.reddit

All of that just makes me think it's a shitty platform. I don't have tiktok, but it's clear that tiktok is way more addictive than reddit, and arguably has better content. And that's really the problem with reddit. It was never designed for OC. It was designed as a content aggregator.

Even funnier though is that to non-reddit using normies...it's as bad as 4chan

the most hilarious aspect of this is that reddit's content moderation will ultimately be what destroys it. Just like how moderation killed old web forums whos users flocked to 4chan, reddit, and similar sites in the late 2000s in order to escape over-moderation on smaller forums.

Anything truly funny and entertaining is edgy. Anything edgy is then banned on reddit so as not to offend the masses of normies. A number of years ago there was r/incels on reddit, and it was one of the greatest subreddits of all time. It was banned and then replaced with r/braincels, which was nearly as good.

I'm not an incel, though I sympathize, and both of those subreddits were extremely hilarious, with some of the funniest memes and posts I've ever seen on the internet. The entire virgin vs chad memes were basically birthed there. That's good content. That's the kind of thing that reddit should be fostering to draw in new users and high quality creators. But instead they ban that shit.

It's no coincidence that the only edgy and interesting subreddits are those that are ostensibly mocking conservatives or right wingers. r/terriblefacebookmemes is where you go if you want redpilled content on reddit. Before that it was r/therightcantmeme or some other similar subreddit.

you guys are making the mistake of thinking that the people buying the stock are interested in earnings reports. the buyers will be people interested in yielding influence on the platform.

The best thing that could happen to reddit is they sell it to some giga billionaire like Elon or Peter Thiel or something. But that will likely never happen. That's why we need to make it our goal to sink the reddit stock price at any cost.

If Reddit does an IPO we simply start a mass guerrilla anon campaign (putting posters up in cities, crowdfunding billboard space etc) to associate reddit with cheese pizza, extreme white nationalism, extreme misogyny (still on there, check out r/misogynygonewild or r/rapefantasies). We upload deepfake nudes of normal chicks to gonewild on reddit etc etc. Do this day in and day out for weeks, months, years if necessary while we short the shit out of the stock.

I have lots of ideas for how to tank the reddit stock price. They have personally wronged me by limiting my free speech, and they must pay, it's just that simple

wealthy elites do not need the ability to buy ownership in reddit in order to exert influence upon it. They already heavily influence reddit. Reddit's acts of censorship have been more egregious than Twitter at their worst in the pre-Elon days. The main Trump supporting subreddit was banned long before Jan 6th.

one fun thing is they're considering implementing ID laws for porn sites in 2 states right now. it's going to be based upon how much of the content is porn versus the rest. I wonder if reddit will have to ban porn or else require ID. there is a fuckton of porn on that site. we'll see. it would ding them pretty bad to have to get rid of porn or else rangeban certain states.

conde nast already owns the shop. if someone wanted to own it for influence they already do. also if they want to own it for influence it will be a private company retard this is an IPO. if conde nast wants to they could retain majority control and control the board and maintain their influence. it would require a hostile takeover to do anything different

>Yes I know there are paid shills and bots.

There no value, you cannot confirm if your ads will accurately reach a target audience within any degree of certainty because upwards of 90% is just bots and the target audience there is a bunch of poor neets who probably pirate all their online purchases anyway because fuck capitalism. 10 Billion dollars is absolutely absurd at most it is worth 10 million and even then I wouldn't touch it.

Picrel is your audience for advertisers and 90% of the meta behavioural data is useless because it's bots. Reddit literally has no value other then it's potential and good fucking luck unfucking that mess

reddit is incredibly valuable. its easily the best source of information for technical knowledge. i go to it for things like what furniture to buy, what products to use when cleaning, random shit like that.

its also of course in the running for the #1 future subtle propoganda machine if not already. as people grow more intelligent and internet savvy, reddit's power will only grow. highly bullish on reddit.

Reddit is the absolute best for niche communities.
You just need to make sure to never start an account, and to only find the reddit page you're interested in through google.
Never fall prey to their algorithm.
