Is this a surprise after it turns out spez was gaslighting the Apollo dev, and the Apollo dev had recordings to prove it?
spez lied? no way, not spez, the same butthole who keeps lying about 3rd party developers, spitting in the face of mods, and destroying communities on reddit in the name of the almighty dollar. couldn’t be that guy 🙄
Guy seems like an idiot. Is he trying to get the VCs to not want the IPO? And he is praising elon about running a company into the ground.
I still don’t understand how, but there’s loads of people who think that Musk is doing an amazing job and should be emulated in all situations. I’ve mostly seen it in other narcissists but this guy might also just be a simp.
I think he’s that out of touch he thinks he’s doing a good job at … Whatever this is. Must be surrounded by yes men that have enabled him so far, cause I’m shocked the board hasn’t removed him yet. This has been a PR disaster
If he’s trying to be like Elon, he’s succeeding.
I just don’t understand the purpose of this guy’s interview tour and insistence on trying to make the developers the villain. It would simply be better for the brand if he said absolutely nothing.
Because the controversy is drumming up news. He’s the face of that and it’s all for the IPO.
No publicity is bad publicity and all that, but he’s also getting ahead of all the other news so that anyone possible investors might be interested.
None of this is for us anymore. Not us the former users, the current users or us “regular people”. He and his handlers are trying to drum up publicity for big money.
Publicity and trying to get ahead of the message are one thing. But on the other hand, he’s telling blatant lies that are easily refuted with audio recordings, transcripts, the actual e-mails, etc. I’m guessing there’s actually some revenue impact already for him to go from “It’ll pass” to this freakout they’re having over there.
That requires people to look for the proof that he’s lying though.
So RIF was paying a revenue share from 2012-2016 (Reddit ended the contract when spez took control). It’s clearly not about the money. It’s about the data, controlling the experience, and knowing what you are looking at.
Any chance these former reddit apps can be converted to Lemmy? I know it won’t be quick but I’m wondering if any 3rd party devs have dropped any hints
Thats what i kinda hopes happens… Jerboa is ok but deff has quite a few quirks (tho im sure they are being worked on, nothing agienst the app) but i always welcome competition/options!
