$5B is definitely a lot more realistic than the $15B valuation they were targeting in 2022, but IMO Reddit is still not a sustainable business as it stands today. So many investors have had their money tied up for over a decade will little to no growth and are going to be scrambling for an exit on IPO day. Revenues are barely growing, losses are increasing. I don't see a rosy future for this stock.
Unlikely sustainable without innovations. A payday for stakeholders and then popular-brand bagholders magnet, possibly a buy-rumor-sell-before-quarterly-report playtoy. I wouldn't expect UX increase and the question is how long the enshittification-revenue balance will be kept steady.
It’s run incompetently just at the moment. You have a golden opportunity right now with the enshittification problem. How many people put Reddit after the KW in search? If it’s opened up maybe it’ll get better management.

They haven't innovated in years. The only real changes to reddit have been a cosmetic re-work and release of an app for mobile use.
Well, that and the API changes that drove away something like a third of the users.
