He also continues to stick the boot into Spez and Reddit to this day.

Everywhere Reddit goes, it takes the cringe with it, it seems.

This question has been asked like half a dozen times in this thread and still nobody has come up with a concrete response.

But that’s the fee for interaction in all of its forms.

If you were to meet someone new and refuse to give away any details about yourself, they would consider that incredibly secretive and the interaction will suffer. If you were to apply for a credit card and withhold your name and adress, the interaction will suffer and you will be denied.

It has and will always work this way, both inside and outside of social media.

Can someone explain how Jerboa up/downvotes aren’t karma? I don’t quite understand how karma isn’t already a thing here.

The blatant astroturfing is what really icked me out. From day one of the API changes, it was clear that Reddit had spun up the spin machine and had begun to misrepresent the issues.

The main one was how they tried to push the “they just want the API for free”, “we’re entitled to charge for our services” narrative.

If you can just hijack any and all “good” policies as inherently progressive then you’re just a self-fuelling fire who wants to hate conservatives no matter what.

It’s a shame that PM has garnered the reputation that he has. He’s a legitimate legend of the industry and is clearly incredibly passionate and ambitious. Students study him and his games.

His recent track record of overpromising and underdelivering is no more egregious than the other major players in the space. Players that actually have more scope and resources to execute, to boot.

I hope he sticks the landing for something soon.

Yeah that’s my point. The fact they were suddenly asking for astronomical fees was conveniently skimmed over in favor of this ‘greedy 3rd parties want stuff for free’ narrative.
