Reddit’s growth in number of subreddits 2006-2014

2012 was a very good year for Reddit. Year 2013 was even better. New communities were being created at an astonishing rate.

I made this gif to illustrate the explosion of new subreddits. A non-gif graph and a list of subreddits created on any given day can be found here.

The total subreddit count refers to all subreddits, active or inactive.
