How do you address the concerns of users who feel that Reddit has become increasingly profit-driven and less focused on community engagement?

We’ll continue to be profit-driven until profits arrive. Unlike some of the 3P apps, we are not profitable.

A company that isn't profitable will still compensate their CEO, so spez is certainly taking gone a big paycheck. In addition, these net worth calculations also take into account stock. Spez most likely still owns a piece of Reddit, and that would be a factor.

You can still get very rich off of a company that isn't profitable.
