View submission: Reddit Community Values
The timing of this subreddit being created... this post in itself, happy wholesome corporate vomit... it's all a giant dark cloud. Reddit already is no exception, money already has and will continue to be the pillar that crushes 'core values' like it has everywhere else. Aaron Swartz warned that this is what would happen and what we're watching is it happening in real time. Disintegration of the world wide wild west as we knew it years ago metastasizing to its final form.

I mean this isn’t technically true but I don’t know why you’re being downvoted. Entering the public market could be bad, Reddit may start making purely money motivated decisions at the cost of its platform. Maybe we’ll get lucky and it’ll stay the same. We’ll have to wait and see I suppose.

Yeah, but, also, noone nuked your comment yet, so maybe it's not all bad?
