It has not commented on the number of roles that will be filled in Ireland but Fora understands that the functions will include some engineering staff and an ‘anti-evil operations specialist’ that will work on Reddit’s trust and safety division, which moderates content on the social network. The company has faced criticisms in the past for abusive content on its pages and trolling activity linked to Russia.

At one time it was owned directly by magazine publishers Condé Nast until 2011 – it was then shifted to Advance Publications, Condé Nast’s parent company. In 2012, Reddit was spun out as its own independent company with Advance maintaining a majority shareholding.
