Spez on Christian (Apollo dev)
His “joke” is the least of our issues. His behavior and communications with us has been all over the place—saying one thing to us while saying something completely different externally; recording and leaking a private phone call—to the point where I don’t know how we could do business with him.
Spez is a fucking joke
What an asshole. Still trying to ruin iamthatis.
For fuck’s sake dude, sorry that you wanted to only quietly out that you’re an asshole and he made sure we all know what a giant, gaping asshole you are.
WHEN I AM AN ASSHOLE I HAVE THE EXPECTATION THAT OTHER PEOPLE KEEP IT PRIVATE
spez is a straight up narcissist that uses the same playbook as the rest. it’s so evident with the gaslighting, blame-shifting, and smear campaign. at this point, anything he says should be understood to be a tactical play in gaining control by seeming powerful, “on your side,” or requiring pity as a victim. his mind is deranged, so he has no other capacity.
I loved the commentary on that exchange from hackernews.

The rule that you shouldn’t build your business on someone else’s API obviously applies here and in the end Reddit is of course justified in choosing to shut out third party apps. But I must say it is simply hilarious that their exorbitant new price was so absurd that when devs quoted it back to them as a buyout rate, Reddit felt like they were being blackmailed. I mean that’s literally getting offended at your own number. “”"
He’s right. If you think the golden goose lays $x/yr and the guy offers it at $.5x and it offends you, you’ve got a problem with yourself.
