Given how Reddit has responded to the whole API, community-mods, etc. fiasco, I felt like they’re doing some of the more effective things in not only destroying their communities but also their IPO valuation.

Everytime I feel they can’t make it worse, they just double down.

Out of pure curiosity, what do you think could be the next steps Reddit could take to make their future even more worse in the most effective ways possible? 😄

    1. Get rid of old.reddit (im not count that - it’s low hanging fruit)

    2. Block web access on mobile.

    3. Require non-VoIP SMS for signup and login

    4. Lock all content behind a loginwall, Pinterest/(& Twitter?) style

    5. Lock replies and posts behind a paid tier

    6. Lock content more than x months old behind a paid tier

    7. Eliminate all NSFW content

    1. Reddit Platinum/Premium/Orange gives you an orange check by your name, for the low cost of $10/month
    2. old.reddit actually still exists, but only if you pay for Reddit Platinum
    3. In order to vote you must have Reddit Platinum
    4. Actually, in order to become a moderator you must have Reddit Platinum - that’s right, you have to pay them to volunteer. And you still have to follow the Mod Code of Conduct.
