Why would Reddit have had a hard time simply installing Ohanian or Huffman as the CEO?

Alexis Ohanian has long been a proponent of viral marketing and native advertising on reddit.

Up until recently, it was not know that Ohanian was behind the termination.

Long before Yishan's post, Ohanian posted on Reddit saying he both owned the reorg of AMAs and flubbed the transition with Victoria Taylor.

That, by the way, is something Ohanian has himself said more than once.

Here, neither thing was allowed to happen: Ohanian is effectively unfireable, and Pao wasn't given a chance to not delegate more stuff to him.

But Ohanian was the chairman of the company, Pao's immediate superior.

From what's been said publicly by principals in the story, we know that Ohanian had taken the AMA section into his personal portfolio.

To me, that's likely at least some of the context for the rumors that Ohanian intervened directly to get rid of Victoria, the former AMA lead at Reddit.

I'm willing to bet Ohanian wanted to make AMA's of this sort pay to play if they already weren't, which led to some friction with Victoria.

Ohanian was installed as chairperson at the same moment Pao was elevated to interim CEO, and at that time, in an unusual move, given "marketing and community building" as his operational portfolio.

Now we're back to people worrying about Ohanian ruining the site, and now Yishan and "Chairman Pao", as her critics loved to call her, have morphed from evil oppressors of free speech to now vanquished defenders of the founder's original vision, which will now be lost as the founder's return to restore their original vision.

We haven’t had the tools to enforce policy, but now we’re building those tools and reevaluating our policy." Quickly refuted by one of the redditors [1] with a quote from Alexis Ohanian himself, answering on Forbes [2] what would the Founding Fathers think of Reddit, echoing verbatim what is being now denied: “ A bastion of free speech on the World Wide Web?

He could get himself, Sam Altman, Alexis Ohanian, and Steve Huffman all sued for fucking over Conde Nast (i.e.

What about moving to a board position, like Bill Gates or Alexis Ohanian?

That doesn't dispute the fact that Ellen was CEO and Ohanian's boss.
