Reddit to me feels very undervalued. As witnessed by the GameStop saga and previously through the influence of r/D_T, Reddit has tremendous influence on modern society and shapes a lot of our narratives. They should be valued way over $6bn

Well you've got to have a concrete metric to come to that number. And while reddit is still hugely influential, it isn't what it used to be and it's importance is waning. A lot of the discourse is happening distributed across the internet nowadays, which I personally think is a good thing.

I agree, but only if I compare to airbnb ($120B), doordash & roku (59B), or maybe the more directly comparable snapchat at 95B.

Perspective is skewed by the stock market doing crazy things lately. Reddit doesn't get the benefit of that.

Shouldn’t the hyper inflated stock market valuation spill to private valuation as well
