    My guess is that the current Reddit Inc. investors know that the price per share will sink in the initial public offering. So to squeeze a bit more cash, they’re trying to sell some shares to suckers who are emotionally invested into the platform, before the IPO.

    If that’s correct it’s extremely scummy, bait-and-switch behaviour. And damn stupid given that Reddit’s CEO Steve “Greedy Pigboy” Huffman was taunting and pissing off powerusers and moderators not too long ago.
