They are failing and they know it. You talk about money, but the rest of us talk about legacy and longevity. Reddit is dying.
Of course it's different now. that's why you and I left. but dying? dying means failing, and objectively they're doing better than ever. I hate that they've cashed in their goodwill/"legacy" and enshittified, but I can't argue that they haven't been successful in doing so. I seriously doubt they care about legacy when the line is going up.
Objectively their business is doing well. Their social network is clearly dropping off like most others. Real people are posting much less across the board, Reddit is turning into a passive AI fueled entertainment platform.
