Another Prediction:
Reddit Earnings will soon be something like what X launched where creators can come on reddit and get paid for unique content & even streaming in time.

Meanwhile, here's the news;

“There is an emerging content type elsewhere on the internet of, basically, podcasts where people read Reddit content,” Huffman explained on the call. “I think this version of, like, listened-to or spoken Reddit can be really engaging, as well,” he said. “So that would be almost a different format entirely.”

It’s not clear how these types of Reddit videos will be incorporated into Reddit’s main app, but Huffman teased that the company will have something available for testing “later this year.”

The news comes as mainstream social and entertainment apps experiment with adding TikTok-like video feeds to their products.
