that isn't really a role though, right? Steve Wozniak was "cofounder" at apple, which meant he did a few public appearances and such and was paid but he wasn't "working" there. A cofounder is a catchall title when your company is like 3 people in a garage and your buddy already snagged the CEO title. Who knows what's up with reddit these days though, I am going to give it a month and see how the dust settles, can't make any bold projections from a twitter profile change.
edit: Also, I commented that I thought it was a bit weird that dang killed another post about reddit which I felt actually contained relevant info, but 20 upvotes on a twitter screencap is a bit much.
edit2[the dead thread eddit]: I totally agree with this flagging [whoever you are] but as a courtesy I, and other HNers i've seen, typically post why. This one is pretty obvious but it does allow a bit of transparency and it seems positive unless there is a strong reason not to.

Cofounder is the title of his new role, not just the indication in his bio that he helped found Reddit, so it covers what he does there now.
