    My gut reaction is that a multimedia website the size of reddit must be a juggernaut of server and hosting expenses.

      Idk but in my opinion describing red*it as a juggernaut for hosting multimedia is a bit far fetched, since their own image / video hosting platform is pretty shit and most of the media content is actually hosted on other platforms.

        I didn’t mean to imply they were good at it, just that the volumes of data involved are certainly not trivial.
