“This is a business decision, not like all those other times people protested companies.”

It’s remarkable to me that Reddit could have let one of their PR drones write a post that essentially took seven paragraphs to say, “Sorry but we have to” and it probably would have mostly blown over.

But Huffman’s ego took the wheel and he had to make it personal. Instead of just leaving, people are actively cheering for Reddit’s downfall.

Their announcements about products that are way better than anything that actually exists with no solid plans to actually bring it to market is actually just another flavor of anti-EV FUD.

It’s not the right time to buy an EV because our imaginary product is SO much better than any of those boring products, you should wait for it and keep buying our gas vehicles for now.

It turns out that banning porn makes advertisers happier, but you sell a lot less ads overall because you have nobody to advertise to.

They’re apparently planning on hoovering up everyone else’s data while keeping theirs to themselves.

It’s Meta, after all.

There are 10 kinds of people in the world. Those who understand binary, those who don’t, and those who didn’t realise this joke is in base 3.

2B’s bum has been a major contributor to Linux gaming.

During the official app beta, every beta tester complained about every problem they still have- poor battery life, shitty performance, unintuitive and space-inefficient UI, excessive ad placement. Reddit made exactly zero changes as a result of this feedback.

Ah, the Activision Blizzard playbook.

It was fully charged ten minutes ago, when the official Reddit app started opening.

This. For a lot of people Reddit isn’t reddit.com, it’s Apollo or Relay or Sync or Reddit Is Fun.

After the apps stop working, they won’t be able to keep using the thing they’re used to. They can’t just go back, they’ll have to switch to something different.
