A lot of Redditors hate the Reddit IPO | Reddit warned us that its users were a risk factor, and boy do they sound excited about shorting its stock.::Reddit seems like a likely candidate for a meme stock. But the actual reaction suggests that r/WallStreetBets isn’t going to send the stock to the moon.
Reddit has a near-monopoly on forum communities. It is ranked 16 on similarweb and no other competitor comes even close in terms of community size. It’s like Facebook in its dominance.
Is it though? Everyone I know aged 20 to 85 i on Facebook, some more active than others. I think I know 3 people irl that use reddit. Mind you I’m not in the US, where is more prevalent but most people I know have barely heard of reddit.
Sure, it has near monopoly on forum communities but that’s a tiny niche on the internet
Most normal people don’t admit to using Reddit, and it is not a platform you use to connect with friends in real life. Facebook has a different use case entirely.
Your first sentence suggests you’re disagreeing, but nothing you said after that is incompatible with anything gp said.
