In an amended SEC filing ahead of its IPO, Reddit warned potential investors that "...on March 18, 2024, Nokia Technologies sent us a letter indicating they believed that Reddit infringes certain of their patents. We will evaluate their claims." Nokia, of course, leaned into, ahem, patent licensing and networking equipment as its business many years ago, and reminded people of it with last year’s logo redesign. Companies paying Nokia licensing fees include HTC, Apple, and more recently, Oppo.

I can’t believe I have to defend reddit for once.

    And reddit is a husk of a former tech company who doesn’t even have a good excuse for why they’ve gotten consistently worse over the last decade.

      They’re not really a husk, they’re doing all the things they ever did. And a lot more… Which we really wish they hadn’t

      Reddit is more like a twisted/undead version of a tech company… It’s still moving and growing, it just has been taken over by the lust to corrupt the living and drain their sanity
