Reddit shares sink on weak sales guidance and plans login requirement test as Google search traffic shrinks
Reddit posts third-quarter earnings and reveals plans to require all users to create official accounts as Google search traffic shrinks
What the coverage shows
Both outlets center Reddit’s earnings update and the drop in Google-driven traffic, with CNBC framing the story around weak sales guidance and a planned login-requirement test. The Verge focuses more narrowly on CEO Steve Huffman’s comment that Google’s AI Mode “does not drive traffic,” and is the only one to quote that line in the extract. CNBC is alone in explicitly mentioning third-quarter earnings in its extract.
