Steve Huffman, the Reddit CEO, told NBC News in an interview that a user protest on the site this week is led by a minority of moderators and doesn’t have wide support.
Huffman said, however, that he’d like some form of revenue-sharing.
“I would like subreddits to be able to be businesses if they choose,” he said, adding that’s “another conversation, but I think that’s the next frontier of Reddit.”
Reddit is only going to get worse. I’m glad I jumped ship when I did.

It’s really a shame that everything good and valuable in the world has to be boiled down to a fucking dollar sign…
Another prediction;
Moderator slots will be up for sale at some point as businesses buy them and start pushing their products/services more aggressively.
“normal” moderators who agree will get a small % of the profits.
