In 2014, the CEO Yishan Wong and lead investor Sam Altman said they were promising equity to some users of Reddit<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.theverge.com&#x2F;2014&#x2F;9&#x2F;30&#x2F;6874353&#x2F;reddit-50-million-funding-give-users-10-percent-stock-equity" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.theverge.com&#x2F;2014&#x2F;9&#x2F;30&#x2F;6874353&#x2F;reddit-50-million...</a><p>Any update on this?

What is going to happen when Reddit ipo’s and the employees benefit financially from it, but the moderators who actually make reddit what it is get nothing?

Afaik there are now bots that attempt to transcribe text from images, which is rather apt given the spread of image ‘memes’ and screenshots of text like the greentexts mentioned in the article.

Are these captions appreciated? The bland text seems to not be as entertaining&#x2F;aesthetic as the images, and captioners never &quot;translate&quot; the image into a witty <i>writeup</i> like a good <i>text</i> joke that captures the essence of the visual.

This is cool.<p>I co-own a Google group called Blind Dev Works. I had no idea this existed.

I thought the earlier post on &quot;Why the Gov.uk Design System team changed the input type for numbers&quot; says a lot in this part-<p>1. Accessibility 1.a) cannot be dictated or selected when using Dragon Naturally Speaking 1.b) appears as unlabeled in NVDA&#x27;s element list<p>We need to stop designing around visually impaired people and hold the tools into account. Why us Gov.uk spending 10&#x27;s of millions on this rather than fixing the tools?<p>This makes no sense<p>&quot;In r&#x2F;DnDGreentext, one user spends hours transcribing 82,000 characters of text from screenshots of a Dungeons and Dragons roleplay game.&quot;
