for anyone who has been on Reddit for a long time, you've noticed a downturn in the quality of almost everything. With the release of chatbots and the advances in ai, there is a strong likelihood of Reddit becoming just bots talking to bots. What if he has info that it is happening more than we suspected and figures the platform is doomed, and it's time to cash out because no one can stop it? he wouldn't be able to say so.

I don't think he's doing a very good job of cashing out lol

Doing a good job doesn't really seem to be his thing...

in what way? because in making it public he still has so much exposure?

Mostly joking but I'm thinking all this drama isn't going to help the IPO

what else can he do?

Not kill 3rd party apps. Charge a reasonable price in a reasonable amount of time for the API.
