I received the offer on my 16 year old Reddit account, but not on another account I have that’s more like 12. Not sure if they went by account age or activity or what.
I can only imagine that they’re offering it to me because my account is like 15 years old… Either that, or I have about 200k post karma and 100k comment karma. (Not big numbers compared to karma whores, but still more than your average user).

What has been your involvement with Reddit as a user so far? I’m trying to understand what users are getting those offers.
I got an offer. I was a user since 2012, I think? Definitely not a top poster or anything.
Ignored it, of course.

I did not try to get in on the IPO (or pre-IPO.)
Yeah I got an offer on my account, too. I’m starting to feel like they’re profiling.
If they’re profiling then they’re bad at it. They offered it to me despite being a US-resident-only offer - which I am not.
