Unfortunately reddit isn't a tech commune. If its intent is to be publicly traded, then it needs to find a way to turn a profit sooner or later.

Reddit-the-community's intent is not for it to be publicly traded. That's the intent of a very small number of people who seek to profit off of Reddit-the-community.

Yea of course. Users of streaming services don’t use those services to prolong the success of the providers yet they continue to buy in for services rendered. I think a truly community driven approach is going to be independent of Reddit as a backbone.
