Now the social media platform is aiming for an IPO in the first quarter of 2024 with a valuation of $15 billion, and has been in talks with potential investors like Goldman Sachs and and Morgan Stanley, per Bloomberg.

Well YouTube is worth far more than even this valuation, so that tracks. There have been many competing services (like the one we're on, and Voat) but none of them have put a dent in Reddit's ability to serve ads to a huge number of eyeballs. I wouldn't invest in it but to suggest it's valueless because they don't own their servers is a stretch.
