Thinking about Reddit as a 10 year old makes a lot of sense to me.

[–]jsmooth7 398ポイント399ポイント  (20子コメント)

If Reddit is already this edgy, I can't imagine what it'll be like at 15.

      It has been more like Benjamin Button; the older it is, the more immature it gets.

        Admins,

        No mention of Aaron? He was an evangelist for modern online communities and their ability to affect change in society -- a value that you so often cite as a virtue of reddit.

        I know that there is complexity about how Aaron was viewed, but your companies were combined before the Conde Nast purchase and you can't say that Aaron's work to move reddit to python before the purchase was insignificant. Even if you don't acknowledge him as a "founder" (even though Nast and Y Combinator did) not mentioning him at all in this post, and in fact many admin posts about the history of reddit, is really petty.

        It wouldn't take anything away from Steve or Alexis to occasionally note someone who influenced the rise of reddit and brought users like me here.

        [–]Notelarry 38ポイント39ポイント  (1子コメント)

        Mad respect for Aaron.

        [–]DominarRygelThe16th 25ポイント26ポイント  (1子コメント)

        The admins never were very fond of Aaron.

        [–]apalehorse 12ポイント13ポイント  (0子コメント)

        There are no badguys in this story. Emotions about coworkers can be intense. Time and events give us perspective.

        Haven't we all been in a situation where we think that others are getting too much credit for work or that people don't appreciate how much weight you had on your own shoulders?

        Nothing wrong with that.

        What is wrong is erasing a human being from history.

        Thank you for your post. I came here to voice these exact sentiments.

        [–]BananaToy 33ポイント34ポイント  (0子コメント)

        I wish they at least mentioned him in the post. I was there at the time and know the issues there, but still I feel it should be noted.

        Their ideals and core values do not align with Aaron's.

          There's a bit of irony to the 4th most gilded post being...

          Upvote this: Buy no gold until Pao Resigns!

          Edit: Thanks for the gold!

          [–]jsmooth7 930ポイント931ポイント x2 (119子コメント)

          Reddit has a server named:

          IBoughtThisGoldToAnnoyFPH

          I think that pretty much explains it.

          [–]IMAGINE_GIRAFFE_TITS 575ポイント576ポイント  (59子コメント)

          Elen Pao helped steal $150,000,000 from police and firefighter pensions funds - there was a massive backlash against her way before FPH

          Sources Forbes, NYTimes, NYPost

          Some Background For The Kleiner Perkins Discrimination Lawsuit

          http://www.forbes.com/sites/tomiogeron/2012/05/23/some-background-for-the-kleiner-perkins-discrimination-lawsuit/

          S.E.C. and Pension Systems to Examine Fletcher Fund

          http://dealbook.nytimes.com/2011/07/12/s-e-c-and-pension-systems-to-examine-fletcher-fund/

          "and, with his wife Ellen Pao, a $1.5 million San Francisco home, the ex-hedgie stands accused of cheating Massachusetts and Louisiana cops and firefighters out of more than $100 million and not paying close to $3 million in taxes."

          http://nypost.com/2015/02/18/case-builds-against-former-ny-hedgie-buddy-fletcher/

          Ellen Pao asked for $ 2.7 million to not appeal her court case with KPCB, a complete shakedown as Buddy Fletcher owes $ 2.7 million in layers fees. That's a lot of lawyers to keep these crooks out of jail.

          That server is probably fat!

          LOL FATTY SERVER PROBABLY EATS 2X THE INCOMING PACKETS THAT THE OTHER SERVERS DO! I bet it even needs a literal data warehouse just so that it can fit in to a building.

          [–]CedarWolf 90ポイント91ポイント  (26子コメント)

          I was there for that! Looks like we're naming a server "RedditX" for the anniversary, today.

          [–]SuperCub 82ポイント83ポイント  (15子コメント)

          The next server should be named "SuperCub" because I just found out we have the option of naming Reddit's servers.

          [–]N8theGr8 56ポイント57ポイント  (12子コメント)

          If you buy gold or get gilded on a day where they reach their quota, you get to vote on a server name.

          You'd think they would have enough servers by now that I wouldn't constantly get that "Our Servers are Down" message with the cat.

          [–]Bardfinn 17ポイント18ポイント  (0子コメント)

          The problem isn't the amount of servers — the problem is the scalability of some of the code.

          [–]callmebrick 7ポイント8ポイント  (0子コメント)

          You also get to suggest a name.

                                It was a simpler time; 56.6k modems ruled the earth and AOL CDs choked every mailbox. I was browsing comp.lang.lisp one day and pg was in there talking about this new website where people could submit links and vote on them. I decided to check it out and I was immediately hooked.

                                    The very concept of dank only came into being once the memes had been watered down enough to be able to be contained by such an inadequate adjective.

This was later adopted by many internet users to refer to the rising trend of WebMemes. /u/charlieb's comment was a succinct explanation of the transition from the era of memes simply being memes to the new age wherein all top-quality memes were forthwith to be considered Dank."

                                      Danker than anything you can imagine. They were so dank we could only reddit for less than tree fiddy minutes every day, or else we would overdose. Many a courageous redditor died in such a manner, braving the dankness.

                                              I've actually been asked this before. My answer is that there were memes but iirc they hadn't been categorised or named as memes in that context they were thought of internet in-jokes.

                                              Richard Dawkins' idea of a meme existed back then but it hadn't been strongly connected to internet jokes.

                                              If you don't mind me asking, what keeps you coming back to reddit? It seems like it'd changed alot since it began as far as user submitted content. Did the change start as gradual so you just didn't notice?

                                              The frontpage has changed a lot because it's mainstream now so the technical stuff and the long-form articles have been pushed into the subreddits but if you pick the right combination subs you can still capture something of the authentic original reddit feel.

                                              I keep coming back because now I don't have to visit 5 different websites for my news and interesting stuff fix. It's all in one place.

                                                    Funny enough I found this comment on one of the posts that day titled "Did you stop using Digg when you joined Reddit?":

                                                    I stopped using Digg when my account got deleted for asking "inappropriate questions".

                                                    Another reason I love reddit: You don't need to put "/s" after ever submission. On Digg, if you don't explain it in simple terms they'll rape you. Fucking diggroids.

                                                    I feel as if reddit has come to that point now.

                                                        Hello guys, I'm back from my 60 hours shadowban. During that time I was able to finish my 200 words essay on the topic of Nazi Germany. My thesis is that Hitler & Nazi beliefs are carried on by Reddit administrators who like to act as if they themselves were literally Hitler. I think I should score at least 90 out of 100 points for that paper.

                                                          No, you're thinking of Pao's law — as a reddit discussion grows longer, the probability of some of its participants to leave for Voat real soon now approaches 1, unless observed, in which case it collapses to 0.

                                                          It'd help if Voat's servers weren't apparently running on a single Raspberry Pi machine and using the local Starbuck's wifi.

                                                          They blew a huge opportunity not being ready to scale to the traffic that was trying to get to them.

                                                                    Before the entire "find the bomber fiasco", there was a thread about people looking for loved ones and/or people stuck in Boston who had no where to stay. Redditors donated rooms in houses, hotel coupons/rooms, and frequent flyer miles to get people where they needed to be. I think pizzas were even donated.

                                                                    In spite of everything else, I think that speaks so much about the type of community that has been built here.

                                                                    [–]steampunkIcarus 548ポイント549ポイント  (47子コメント)

Either because you are romanticizing the past and it was never as good as you thought it was, because it has grown enormously in popularity which tends to mean it strays from the things about it you enjoyed, because admins/mods have legitimately made terrible decisions regarding the site/board (see; Digg) or because it has lost popularity and become a ghost town.

                                                                            I know, people say "X used to be so much better in MY day" about literally everything, often without reason, but it's a pretty consistent thing with message boards falling apart with time and older users becoming disillusioned with what they've become, and not without reason.

                                                                            Also, fuck me for responding to a circlejerk comment with an actual serious response and just now realizing it; I think this entire comment section has fried my brain.

They're putting themselves in a position to be bought out. What they're doing (and will be doing) is a classic case of management changing things up for profits. Reddit is a business, I get it.

Like they were annoyed that he was often listed as a co-founder of reddit, because he kind of just hung around and didn't do much work. But after he died they stopped saying such things... as openly as they did on here anyway. I'm sure they still say it to each other in the office.

                                                                                    edit: Here is the link where a couple of the admins take a dump on Aaron Swartz for those interested.
