We’ve all been told - even here in the Museum - that the first comment on Reddit was a complaint about comments. That record needs correcting.
The earliest known comment is currently this one:
A look at Vietnam and Mexico exposes the myth of market liberalisation.
This was discussed on Theory of Reddit, and in fact, there are at least 32 comments that are older. For reference, these are the first 50 comments known, via the PushShift Reddit search API:
