    The reality is that unless you have immense, immense scale (i.e., Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn), making money off social media is impossible. Twitter barely made any money before Elon Musk took it over, and it’s making less now.

    Reddit is pseudo-anonymous too and is harder to monetize, because high ad rates come from being able to identify your users.

      Where do you get the idea reddit is not as big as Instagram? It has just as much traffic as wikipedia and Amazon in the U.S.
