I wanted to have as few values as possible so their impact is greater. We felt that both Remember the Human and What Would Snoo Do? encompass the ideas of respect and privacy.

This is a tricky one. The problems we see are a result of a couple of decisions we made a long time ago, not understanding their longterm consequences: simplistic moderator hierarchy and valuable real-estate in r/ urls. Unwinding these decisions requires a lot of thought and finesse. Reddit wouldn't exist as it does today without the good moderators, and we need to be very careful to continue to empower them while filtering out the bad actors. I'd like to be more specific–our thinking is more specific–but we're not ready to share anything just yet.

I understand the motive for creating them in the first place, to ensure variety on the front page, but I think we would take a different approach now.

  1. People can be their authentic selves in a way they can't anywhere else. They can also be someone else's authentic self.

  2. Batman. He's the world's greatest detective.

It's hard to answer that. There are many moments that I regretted at one point (selling Reddit so early, leaving Reddit, letting my marriage fail), but that I now look back on with perspective, and those experiences have shaped me for the better.

Yes yes yes. Our biggest high-level product need to is to educate new users on what Reddit actually is.

Yes and no. We spent a lot of the last year healing and hiring. I have to remind myself that we can't do everything we want overnight. At the same time, I'm really excited to build all our dreams, and I want to get things online yesterday!

Yes, actually. There are probably users who were accidentally banned for spamming, but in reality they were just sharing an IP with a spammer. Now that our anti-spam efforts are so much better, I'd like to unban all old spammers and see what happens.

We announced this last week. We haven't enabled it yet, and we will provide an opt-out. We're starting with a test to see what the opportunity size actually is. We're also treading carefully.

Not a lot new, but I can repeat how we feel: privacy colors many of our conversations around here. We have a good privacy policy; we released a thorough transparency report, which will be even more thorough next year because we're keeping better records; and that whole techno-libertarian, super-paranoid viewpoint that exists on Reddit? That came from me, and has been upheld by many others around here over the years.

edit: I have a hard time with links.

Never. But how often do I do AMAs while on the toilet? Now that's a question worth asking.

Yes, but we throw away IPs after 100 days.

Can you see the main account of a throwaway?

Sort of. No one's looking. If they happen to share an IP, it's possible, but many IPs, for example at a college, have many hundreds of accounts on them.

edit: I should clarify. There is no such thing as a "super mod," and only select Reddit employees have access to IPs.

We would like to make better use of all the data we have. The front page could be a lot more relevant; we can make better content suggestions; and yes, ads can be better targeted. There are many opportunities to make Reddit better and more relevant.

We're not actually doing it now. I've mentioned this sort of thing before. When do, we'll always provide an opt-out or way of resetting things.

No, we'll don't ever share this sort of information directly with advertisers. We sometimes have to jump through a lot of hoops to accomplish this, but we don't mind at all.

We're still working through the acute pain of fixing and finding the actually compromised accounts. 2fa after that. We've talked through the technical challenges, and they're not that bad.

Thought of, yes. In reality, probably not. We do appreciate everything they do for us, however. I don't use it myself because I believe I should have to suffer until we make things better.
