The company I work for spends ads on social media companies for ransomware protection and regularly spend is regularly negative. That means we spend more money on advertising than we do in income. We only do it to maintain some market share but otherwise it's just a pure loss on that platform.

Fuck spez and his ad infested shit hole called Reddit

That place has become a reposting bot haven. The niche market is still hanging around but the main content drivers seem to be broken or gone.

I wonder how ad view counts are affected when you actively drive away your hard core content posting audience? Hmm...

Those targets seem unrealistic even without driving off a core group of heavy users.

I need to figure out the details of shorting an IPO between now and TBD 2024.

[-] ricecake@sh.itjust.works 16 points 11 months ago

You open a brokerage account and get margin approval.

When it IPOs, you do a short sale at your brokerage.
You get the cash for the sale immediately, and get charged interest for your brokerage "lending" you the shares you sold.
Later, you buy the shares back or "buy to cover" and that makes you square with your brokerage.

Hopefully the price went down enough so that the difference between what you sold at and bought at was greater than the interest you paid.
