    Reddit doesn’t seem to understand what their platform is for. If people are adding “reddit” to the end of google searches, it shows that they want brands to talk less, and real people to talk more.

      no no no, they don’t want you to use google. They want you to use Reddit search instead, because it’s so awesome!

        They put the same amount of time, effort, research, and engineering into Reddit search that they put into the official Reddit app!

    Every fucking social media company wants to be the same thing. It’s boring as shit.

    It really feels like they presented a road map at the beginning of the year and are sticking to it no matter what, neither looking at their own user base nor what is happening in the world of big social media right now.

    It’s almost impressive.
