Reddit has opened up chat rooms for its users, but that doesn’t mean there are a limited number of rooms to talk. Perhaps most importantly, we wanted to get to know people using chat and learn from them.” “So we wanted to make sure there was a place for people in the betas to test chat, give feedback, and have a bit of fun. “When we started, we knew that most people didn’t personally know other redditors, since the core of the Reddit experience is pseudonymous sharing and discussion,” ityoclys, a Reddit product designer, stated in the blog post. The web forum engaged almost 7000 people in the span of one year to ascertain the role of chat rooms on its platform. In a recent blog post, Reddit has shed more light on what the company learned after taking feedback from a number of users. The beta version of the community-based chat rooms was into testing for a year, and now after getting positive feedback, Reddit is rolling out the feature to all its users.
This way, there will be more interaction between people. As the word ‘Chat Room’ itself suggests a space where multiple people can come along and share their views on a common platform. The internet’s largest forum hub is investing in ‘Chat Rooms,’ which is intended to bring the Reddit users together. Chatting is something we all cherish, and on the same lines, Reddit has something for its users.
