Who controls new features?

Companies like Reddit often introduce new features through controlled experiments, as seen with their AI-voiced videos. This allows them to test the feature with a limited group, gather feedback, and fix any issues before a wider rollout. It minimises risks and ensures the feature is well-received and functional when it reaches all users.
