The COO noted other platforms have 80%-90% of users outside the U.S., while Reddit has about half of current users based internationally. “So that points to a lot of our future user growth opportunity definitely outside of the U.S. and local language,” Wong told CNBC. “The opportunity, the way I think about it, is every language is an opportunity for another Reddit.”
