you’re invited to a special program that lets redditors purchase stock
I loaded a page on reddit due to a search result and found out that I'm among the chosen few. Message sent yesterday. They must've gotten fewer takers than expected on the first round of invites if they're now offering shares to people who haven't posted, commented, voted, or done anything else on the site for the past 8 months.
I don’t really know what the fuck they expected, when they announced the ipo and then disclosed “Oh btw we don’t make any money and never have, also our users can literally shut our entire site down at a moment’s notice”
