Apparently reddit attended the same workshop.

Spez literally said in an interview that Musk's handling of twitter is what inspired him so

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

They just announced they're removing the coins/awards system.

How else are we supposed to know that the [removed] comment at the top of r/news or r/politics was the best content in the thread?

I don't know, but don't read it unless they gilded themselves 3 times... whoops.

They also deleted all chat history from prior to this year.

I think they also plan to block you viewing Reddit in mobile browsers so you must get their app.

And that will be when I completely stop browsing Reddit. I already dropped my useage by probably 95%. If they do that, it'll drop to about 99.9% since I do most of my browsing away from my desk.

For real lol. It was my “information” app for coffee breaks at work or when I had downtime. I’m only at my computer to game, not browse Reddit
