The refusal to seriously explore cross API marketing is absolutely nuts to me. That's reddit's billion dollar innovation and it was right there. Everything was in place, and it would have legitimately set reddit apart from every other shitty social media marketing paradigm, and would have been an actual game changing innovation.
All they needed was to put some actual engineering effort into it. Which I guess explains why they didn't even fucking try.
