Huffman said he saw Musk’s handling of Twitter, which he purchased last year, as an example for Reddit to follow.

The writing is on the wall. Those who are staying on Reddit despite everything u/spez said recently are literally asking to be shit on and will fully deserve it.

    My personal thoughts are that anyone who thinks hivhly of what Elon Musk has done to Twitter is highly suspect and probably best avoided.

    Imagine looking at the chaos of Twitter and thinking “wow, that’s a great idea. I need to do the same”

    Twitter is seeing declines in usage and has quickly fallen from its position of having an outsized place in the social conversation to a position of being a train wreck everyone is enjoying watching.

      Imagine thinking that, then saying that out loud before an IPO.

    He’s realized that glomming onto Elmo is the only way he’s going to get friends who can help.

    How long now until reddit stops paying rent, gets evicted, and fires all their employees because they get told to work in an office they were evicted from and you can’t work from home?

    with him at the helm i’ll never use reddit again. even if apollo made a deal to use the api I wouldn’t go near reddit until there is a change of leadership. It’s a democracy with a dictator at the helm.
