The Reddit Protest Is Finally Over. Reddit Won. in c/reddit@lemmy.world

Yeah, Reddit managed to suppress the protests, but saying they won is just not knowing the full story. From Reddit's point of view, this has always been about their IPO, but all this mess did nothing to help with it. In fact, we even got that infamous spez quote saying Reddit isn't profitable, which can only make things worse for them.

When they finally decide to push for their IPO and they aren't unable to provide the profits the investors want, then the enshittification will just accelerate and people will start leaving.

Instead of "X", how about we all call it "the website formerly known as Twitter" from now on? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

I will just keep calling it Twitter just like I still say Hotmail.

I really think the world needs a few more Elon Musks around. I mean, wouldn't it be great to have a Musk at Google to destroy it from the inside just like he's doing to Twitter?
