I'm not online often. Media that repost old news do good work anew. 
Apparently there was a [protest against Reddit](https://gizmodo.com/reddit-ceo-steve-huffman-moderators-landed-gentry-1850546737/4)
over [its API](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Reddit_API_controversy). 
Now it's [a public company](https://www.theverge.com/24097069/reddit-ipo-public-investment-ai-training-data-google).

Reddit's {{< abbr CEO "chief executive officer" >}} probably knows more about
its users than the users know about themselves. A shrewd company (with good
marketing) is an elegant government.

It's amazing, the last time I lurked Reddit was for neophyte notes on
[Guix](https://guix.gnu.org/). Since then I've went back to long form
blogging/note-taking offline.
