WE HAD A GOOD THING YOU STUPID SON OF A BITCH!

We had 3PA's, we had all the free labor in the world, just from passionate people who wanted to share the things they love, we had bots to fight spam, and extremely talented developers who made your stupid website work on mobile. It all ran like clockwork, if you could have just shut your mouth we'd all be fine right now.

But no, you just had to blow it up. YOU, AND YOUR GREED AND YOUR EGO.

Fuck u/spez

Reddit is one of the most trafficked website on the internet. Their infrastructure department alone is likely hundreds of people. Their non-infrastructure developers is probably also in the hundreds. Technology operations another few dozen. Security/cyber another few dozen. General technology staff probably makes up well over half of their payroll. Then consider HR, legal, regulatory-related positions, facilities, etc. it can add up quickly.
