Yeah he apparently started making a statement to the press and only got about 5 words in before freezing and going blank, a classic show of senility.
Ever see the excellent poster for the Nic Cage movie Lord of War?
Now say it again but replace crytpocurrecy with Website aggregation. Its honestly not that different from leaving the big centralized reddit for the Fediverse… only to mostly end up in a few relatively huge alternatives in the name of decentralizing. Its just… human nature.
/r/gifs currently is following suit! If you still have a reddit account go vote ASAP! (Also unsubscribe from all your “business as usual” subs as possible, immediately, if you can’t delete your account immediately for whatever reason)
Except… that’s not what they say anywhere. In fact they wrote three nuanced essays that explain in detail their philosophy, and lay out that you CAN be critical of something (i.e. feminism) in a nice way that acknowledges your humanity and the humanity of others, and that if Feminists come in and flame you over it, THOSE are the people who will be getting warnings and bans. They want a mature community that fosters mutual understanding when disagreements arise. So when someone says “feminism bad” like they have a 26 character limit that doesn’t exist, they see it not as disagreement but as disrespect.
If he was gonna bullshit someone it should have been investors and advertisers, not users. Look at pre-Elon twitter, Jack Dorsey knew how to IPO on straight hedgefund money.
Lol, I can’t believe what I’m reading. Reddit admitting to the mod community that they have a duty to keep spaces “accessible to users.” They’ve had 20 years to keep their spaces accessible to people who require screen readers and so on. It’s been crickets until this week.
Funnily enough it did fine at the box office but because it was positioned at the end of Disney’s “golden age” and made noticeably less than any other Disney movie of the era, they pivoted away from it to the point where many people assume it’s a DreamWorks or Universal animated flick.
