    Here’s the VP of Reddit’s community cited in the article, Laura Nestler, preaching super engagement from a platforms most fanatical users to power content for the 90%.

    She suggests, intrinsic motivators such as “autonomy”.

    She was at Yelp prior, which if you want to look at a steaming pile of a wasted company, man give reddit 5-10 years.

      Good. Can’t wait for these shit MBA clowns to destroy something else with their vast “knowledge”. Only this time will cheer them on.

      I remember there was like a twilight where yelp was helpful, then it wasn’t and I learned all their shady shit and went “yeah that explains it”.

      Reddit has a longer amount of content to burn through but if it becomes just husks of communities puppetted by corporate pr firms it’s going to just slowly cannibalize.
