Yishan Wang

Yishan Wang appears in Steve Huffman on Reddit’s Origin Story, Sale, and Return as the CEO who led Reddit after it spun out from Conde Nast and regained more startup-like structure. The episode mentions him as part of the period when Reddit received money, an options pool, and the ability to hire more like a startup again.

The source does not profile Wang in depth, but it places his CEO period inside Reddit’s recovery from Corporate-Owned Startup Constraints.
