After five years away from the company, Ohanian and Huffman returned to leadership roles at Reddit: Ohanian became the full-time executive chairman in November 2014 following Wong's resignation, while Pao's departure on July 10, 2015, led to Huffman's return as the company's chief executive.[55][56] After Huffman rejoined Reddit as CEO, he launched Reddit's iOS and Android apps, fixed Reddit's mobile website, and created A/B testing infrastructure.[19] The company launched a major redesign of its website in April 2018.[57] Huffman said new users were turned off from Reddit because it had looked like a "dystopian Craigslist".[57] Reddit also instituted several technological improvements,[58] such as a new tool that allows users to hide posts, comments, and private messages from selected redditors in an attempt to curb online harassment,[59] and new content guidelines. These new content guidelines were aimed at banning content inciting violence and quarantining offensive material.[19][58] Slowe, the company's first employee, rejoined Reddit in 2017 as chief technology officer.[60] Reddit's largest round of funding came in 2017, when the company raised $200 million and was valued at $1.8 billion.[15] The funding supported Reddit's site redesign and video efforts.[15]
Subreddits (officially called communities) are user-created areas of interest where discussions on Reddit are organized. There are about 138,000 active subreddits (among a total of 1.2 million) as of July 2018[update].[92][93] Subreddit names begin with "r/"; for instance, "r/science" is a community devoted to discussing scientific publications, while "r/gaming" is a community devoted to discussing video games and "r/worldnews" is for posting news articles from around the world.
Reddit finally unleashes its official mobile app
Reddit Public Access Network, commonly known as RPAN, was a live streaming service run by Reddit.[101] Viewers interacted with streams by upvoting or downvoting, chatting and by giving paid awards. During the off-air hours, 24/7 streaming was possible to the dedicated subreddits, but with limited slots and capabilities.[102] On August 19, 2019, Reddit announced RPAN. It was said to be in testing, but they were experimenting with making it a permanent program, as well as a way to increase revenue for the platform.[103] Later, a five-day testing period began. During the testing period, streaming was for a select group of users, allowing 30 minutes of streaming per person and 100 slots.[104] On July 1, 2020, RPAN Studio was released, an application that allows users to broadcast live from desktop computers. RPAN Studio has been built on top of OBS, an open-source streaming and recording program.[105] On January 28, 2021 Reddit permanently increased streaming times to three hours.[106] RPAN was officially discontinued on November 15, 2022.[107]
In 2010, Reddit released its first mobile web interface for easier reading and navigating the website on touch screen devices.[130] For several years, redditors relied on third-party apps to access Reddit on mobile devices. In October 2014, Reddit acquired one of them, Alien Blue, which became the official iOS Reddit app.[131] Reddit removed Alien Blue and released its official application, Reddit: The Official App, on Google Play and the iOS App Store in April 2016.[132] The company released an app for Reddit's question-and-answer Ask Me Anything subreddit in 2014.[133] The app allowed users to see active Ask Me Anythings, receive notifications, ask questions and vote.[133]
In late 2017, Reddit declared it wanted to be a mobile-first site, launching several changes to its apps for iOS and Android.[110] The new features included user-to-user chat, a theater mode for viewing visual content, and mobile tools for the site's moderators. "Mod mode" lets moderators manage content and their subreddits on mobile devices.[110]
