I know Spaz is the adam mod but still under our rules, he should never be allowed to post anything in the website ever again. He broke the number 1 rule in Reddit and many subreddits for mods. He can post whatever he likes in his official place but never in other subreddits. Everyone knows how annoying automod can become, it should be possible to do it or enough to annoyed him.

Stop fixating on that guy, it’s not healthy.

Seriously. Reddit could have a different CEO tomorrow and it wouldnt change anything.

[–] HeartyBeast@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

If it did have a different CEO tomorrow, it would due to recognition by investors that the guy had done an absolutely shit-tastic job of handling this - so yes, something would have changed.

end goal would be the same
the journey would be the same
the messaging would be the only thing to change.

I don’t see why. They could - for example - have injected adverts into the API feed and made it a licensing condition that adverts were displayed inline in mobile clients.

but it's still a CEO, so they'd still primarily think in terms of profit; either way the enshittening of Reddit wouldn't be averted at all

[–] Widget@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

The reddit CEO caring about money would actually be a step up. They would realize that the content is what keeps people on the site, and that free labor provided by community mods actually saves them tons of money.

This dude is just a Musk wannabe.

That's predicated on the simple, compelling - and I think wrong - belief that all for-profit organisations are equally shitty.

[–] AnalogyAddict@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Agreed! You can make money and not be a donkey poop about it.

[–] aeternum@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Just like facebook! amirite? no. No I'm not.

[–] NotTheOnlyGamer@kbin.social 11 points 2 years ago

Hollow & petty gestures don't help.

I get he is a douche but can we try be much more productive with this migration from Reddit instead of doing "Imagine this..."

It helps nobody at all and all you going to get is more angry rather than actually getting anything at of it.

It's like digg but with tons of bots

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Imagine a shittier kbin.

Whos this spez you speak of? Never heard of 'em

[–] Kingdogethe42nd@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

A spez is a term for a greedy CEO

[–] borkcorkedforks@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

Lol, that's not going to work. Even if there isn't code to block the action he'll just undo it because fuck it.

It would still be good for a laugh though. If any mods want to try it they should document it to see what happens at least. I assume such actions will mean they person doing it will at minimum have their mod access taken away. I wouldn't be surprised if the attempt led to a ban.

[–] TGRush@forum.fail 2 points 2 years ago

this would be really funny, even if ineffective :P
