The Reddit co-founder spoke about the progress he made in the last decade but elevated his wife, Serena Williams, and daughter, Alexis Olympian Ohanian, to the position of his greatest achievement.

He wrote:

2009 (freshfaced) on stage at @ted giving a talk about @reddit.

2019 (bearded with many grays) after countless speaking appearances, my toughest crowd is now convincing @olympiaohanian that raspberries alone are not a complete meal.

In between these photos, I left Reddit, started some other companies, wrote a bestselling book, returned to help lead the Reddit turnaround, left again in order to do @initialized full-time, married the incomparable @serenawilliams, and -- my proudest achievement yet -- co-created this little human. Not a bad decade. I cannot wait for the next 10 years. #DadThings
