Well, at least Reddit has admitted their "we're not trying to be like Twitter/Elon" stuff was false

@christianselig Wait, what?

Ok, I take this as proof that I live in a simulation and my instance is currently experience a kernel panic.

There is simply no other explanation for everything that has happened in the last couple of years AND Elon Musks complete meltdown being considered as a prime example of great business strategies and transformation. That's just the cherry on top.

I need a drink.

@christianselig it has he looked into what happened to Twitter since?

itscosyhere,

@christianselig both if them are going to sink it, and fediverse alternatives will become the next social media thing. This is just shameless from Reddit and Twitter at this point.
Christian i know you said you have no plans to keep Apollo but have you considered repurposing it into a Lemmy client app? I think your core following would switch anyways considering they only used reddit through Apollo.

jerrydawson,

@christianselig He thought Musk's running of Twitter was an example to follow? Man, I'd buy what he's using!

@christianselig Holy shit that's absolutely baffling to me. How could anyone look at what Musk's been doing for the last year and think "yes, more of that, please!"? Pure insanity. This is a 101 of how not to run a community platform.

@christianselig @below „there is a lot of opportunity here“. That’s is literally true for everybody who wants to build a new Reddit-like platform now 😂👌

vizhal007,

@christianselig scumbag agrees with scum, more to follow at 9.

savasdersimi,

@christianselig Reddit is earful now, so yeah can see why.

savasdersimi,

@christianselig well, I hope they continue what they're doing so more move to Mastodon.

ctwoodland,

@christianselig what a clownshow. Enjoy your site populated entirely by bots and r/AdviceAnimals posts, Steve :perfect:

MaybeMyMonkeys,

@christianselig greed destroys

WaddlingFungus,

@christianselig This confirms the that Elon's actions have been very popular with C-suite executives. They can now rebrand open contempt/mistreatment of their users and staff as "being like Elon."

This also reveals the obvious fact of wealth/corporate power having no correlation with intelligence nor business savviness.

@christianselig And now because of it, Reddit became the same shitty as twitter.

@christianselig who the hell would look at the mess that is Twitter under Musk and think "ooh, we should do that too"?!

Jbquinn,

@christianselig and it’s working so well for Twitter, too! 🙄

Big_Worker,

@christianselig it's horrifying how tech CEOs watched Musk burn twitter to the ground and all reacted with "I've got to do that same thing!" because they got a vicarious thrill from Musk sticking it to Twitter's employees and users. What's money relative to showing your dominance over other stakeholders in your business?

@christianselig man Lemmy needs a killer app. u/spez is so out of touch. Get me outta there!

yma,

@christianselig This guy is a joke. He forgot musk has infinite money to burn and other businesses to prop up, so Twitter as an entity can afford to make losses as long as it is successful in pumping out propaganda that has a net benefit across his business portfolio. I wonder what businesses little Steve has that he can afford to run Reddit like it’s Twitter? Hipmunk?

@christianselig @DataDrivenMD
These CEO’s think people are idiots, which makes them idiots.

If you want to talk deals, it’s either
a) I give freely into the public domain and expect everything to be in the public domain.
b) You pay people who add value and we all have a commercial relationship.

In some ways I’m pleased this control is exposed, but it didn’t have to be this way.

@christianselig

Astonishing that anyone thinks Musk's work at Twitter has been positive in any way. Even financially -- is that awful platform really going to start earning back the -- what -- $22bn he's lost on it so far?
