But what Reddit is putting a price on is access to content generated by its users, not Reddit itself.
Spot on. Spez is short-sighted thinking he can “musk out” of this situation, as reddit is no twitter.
Twitter’s value is on its users: often empty but famous shells moving hot air from tweet to tweet. Reddit’s value was in the content we brought but as soon as we stop feeding the beast it’s just a glorified wayback machine. That is, if we do not delete our past contributions.
Not only reddit is not twitter, but also spez is not Musk.
I mean, I dislike Musk as a person as much as everyone else but we can’t deny some of his companies are doing fantastic things, look at SpaceX.
What did spez do? Nothing. How can he think he’s “someone” lol, he’s nothing.
He moderated some subs before…
Great article. We need to be in the news more. Reddit is gonna die in a fire and hot flames and we are all here for it!
