What is Reddit CEO Steve Huffman doing? (www.theverge.com)

One of the weirder phenomena of the low interest rate era in tech was a tendency to see companies primarily as investments. The goal was not to have a functional business, but an exit, often via IPO or acquisition. I have begun to wonder if that explains what Reddit CEO Steve Huffman has been up to lately.

Umm...yeah.

Like how the article points out that "landed gentry" revolts against royalty tend to be more successful.

Yeah we figured that out like a month and a week ago, during the time of the protests themselves.

I’ve never seen his face, but now I have, I have to say he has a really punchable one. Right there with Skreli.

No idea with him honestly.

I mean, didn't he get a viable exit ramp with Conde Nast?
