“It’s clear that our missions are closely aligned and that our community-centric platforms can coexist,” said Steve Huffman, CEO of Reddit. “Both can grow as we learn from each other.”
Dubsmash’s inventors are Jonas DrĂĽppel, Roland Grenke, and Daniel Taschik. The three German entrepreneurs who launched the product in November 2014. They quickly reached the top of the local app rankings in Berlin.
