Anyone who read the Reddit S1, why does it cost $891MM to run reddit?

director of product @seedclub. i host S-TIER @ X Spaces & i interview crypto builders @ web3galaxybrain.com.

Funny that they didn't put their biggest risk in the S1 as making their API so prohibitively expensive that they alienated 90% of their builder ecosystem.

I’ll put my money on there being 10000 lines of DEI dependency jammed into the operating expenses and someone might get the sniffles if they unfuck it

Likely coding. I like /techno music & /mech-kb. /bulgarian

Does it seem like Reddit should cost a billion dollars to run, to you? Perhaps insourcing video is super expensive. 2K employees also seems like a lot considering what the site does.

2K employees + server costs. My question is more how do they make only $10 per year for each of their 78m daily actives?

i assumed based on the headlines of 800M revenue and 91M losses

I don't see that figure? In FY23 they declared $944M in Costs and Expenses.

what is reddit doing with 2,000 people?

when whatsapp was acquired, they had 55 employees and half a billion mau ⚡️
