Reddit isn’t alone. Any company that gets a lot of traffic from Google is feeling the impact.
Reddit YoY profit is quite strong, but daily active users is softer than expected. A lot of people suspect that they, like many other companies that depend on SEO for a chunk of users, are being impacted by LLMs.
Many questions that would normally get answered in Reddit start and end in GPT or Gemini / AI overview.

There’s a ton of that going on now. 20.1 mil $ value was 591,000 shares or so.
All the C-suite officers are selling when the market pops and buying back when it dips. Yesterday the share values jumped over 20 bucks.
There is definitely some gaming of the stock going on.
