The milestone timeline is oddly underwhelming. Both it and the letter from Steve Huffman emphasize the /r/WallStreetBets frenzy as evidence of Reddit popularity, which is ironic because a) it died out as quickly as it rose, as noted in Risk Factors and b) reminding the SEC that your platform was used for market manipulation in your S-1 is kinda funny. Funniest line: > Revenue from Reddit Gold and Collectible Avatars…

I saw WSB hit 60,000 concurrent users watching the Nvidia earnings yesterday

Huh, I just checked now and WSB does have more CCUs than I expected. (WSB has 38.0k CCUs, /r/pics has 36.3k CCUs)

That makes zero intuitive sense.

Are you an active user? What was the cutoff threshold for this?

Somewhat active. Could have something to do with my account being 15+ y/o as well.

WSB has more actual discussion, while people mostly see /r/pics on their feed (because it's a default subreddit) or scroll through really quickly (because it's easily-consumable content).

Are there any Reddit alternatives these days? Something like HN but more slightly more casual (image/video embeds, subreddits)
