To expand on this, it’s not just capitalism - it’s greed.
No it’s just capitalism lol. Every company has to continue reaping in profits for capitalists or else it dies. This is just Reddit’s way of doing that.
I don’t think “greed” is quite the right word.
“Greed” would be the right word if they were trying to make themselves more profitable.
But they’re not: they’re trying to make themselves profitable at all.
That’s not about greed, but about surviving.
You can’t survive unless you stop hemorrhaging money at some point.
Maybe the question is “Why do investors invest so many hundred of billions of dollars into companies that cannot be profitable without becoming super-shitty? And why do users join them knowing that they’re going to become super-shitty one day?”
