I thought I read Reddit was valued around at $8bn. Maybe they were talking in Zimbabwean $$. Cause the video loading system, the volunteer mods, admin hiring process, and these constant crashes definitely doesn't give the feel of a multi billion $$ enterprise.

Yeah like at least facebook functions properly.

The things it does are shitty, but it does them well.

Well, their video player is worse than Reddit in my opinion, but to their credit, it's done on purpose.

Hmm, and what exactly makes you think it isn't on purpose in regards to Reddit?

I like how this comment thread just petered out.

BTW, what’s the reason for Facebook doing that with their videos (potentially Reddit’s reason as well)?

I’d wager to keep you watching. I count count how many times i wanted to watch a video and watch ended up spending 30 minutes watching of bs videos

Ahh okay, that makes sense. I haven’t been on Facebook I’m really long time and when I was on it I don’t even remember them having a video player.
