Does this corporation have a board? What the fuck are they doing exactly? I mean it's private, so it's probably just a bunch of buddies, but there's been a ton of seed funding at Reddit, no? Like wouldn't these venture capitalists care? Clearly not, but this is definitely getting comical. What a fucking disaster. This is going to be textbook business class case material for years to come.

Conde transferred ownership one level up the food chain. So the people in charge aren't used to any kind of media, let alone social media.
