All the jokes aside, it's still amazing the CEO over a year in doesn't even know how profitable being an user that drives engagement on the site is compared to a (I guess) competitor like youtube. He's just like we're as profitable as youtube for you, or if not we can be, like the guy knows nothing and is just throwing claims out there with no basis in reality or plan to follow through on them.

over a year in

The deal closed at the end of October. He's also appointed a new CEO, so while he owns, the title isn't with him. He's still in charge, though. Still an asshole, too.
