It's a hard call on Reddit.

This article seems to leave out the reality that Reddit's big win is data and an in built machine learning capability in what is good quality. For future AI and LLMs it's actually a treasure trove of information that will only rise in value.

Realistically it's had massively bad PR and issues but people still use it over Lemmy and many others, and Lemmy/others aren't going to overcome it any time soon (if ever). So it doesn't seem like it's going to go away at end of day, and it's still one of the best sources of information on the internet available.

At end of day it's stocks so it's coin flips all the way. No one beats the market consistently over time that doesn't also utilise insider information.

From the article:

Reddit earns an Unattractive Stock Rating.

Of course it does, have you seen the average redditor?

“[moderators] may be able to leverage their influence within those communities to change the dynamics of the discourse within the communities or to disrupt the normal operation of their communities or other communities on our platform.”

And they can give you rando-bans out of nowhere, suddenly cutting you off from your topic of interest and exposing serious flaws with the entire site.

sounds like a ripe opportunity for YOLO Stock Option Puts
