Reddit, that vast, lively and sometimes borderline shambolic repository of internet discussion, said Monday, March 11, 2024, that its pending initial public offering may be worth almost three quarters of a billion dollars.
The interest surrounding Reddit stems largely from a large audience that religiously visits the service to discuss a potpourri of subjects that range from silly memes to existential worries, as well as to get recommendations from like-minded people. Meta Platforms — whose biggest social media service Facebook was started just 18 months earlier than Reddit —- boasts a market value of more than $1.2 trillion. Meta also generates annual revenue of $135 billion, while Reddit’s remains below $1 billion.Google, Meta and others face tough questions in Australia over cyber extremism threatsAnd then there is this problem: Reddit has never profited from its broad reach, while piling up cumulative losses of $717 million.
