Where is the incompetence? His competency is dependent on making money for a specific few.
It has nothing to do with the outcome of the site, beyond how that outcome influences said making of money.
If the shareholders cash out happy and the site dies out, he did his job, regardless of whether or not you think that's fair.
Yes, it sucks for the rest of us who liked Reddit. I am one of those people.
Saying this guy is incompetent just because his interests go against the interests of people who use Reddit is ludicrous.
The interests are in conflict, it sucks. That's it. We have Lemmy. Get over it.
They don't give a shit about what a company is doing today, except to the extent it is predictive of the future. Investors look at this and see lots of activity of users who actively hate the company, that's not future growth
Yes. And if you look at Reddit today, it's still alive and full of buzz.
The third-party app userbase was a small percentage of the site.
Most people are indifferent and so they keep using it.
They don't care. You're not even bed bugs to these people. You're just the siren that's heard 20 blocks away downtown at 10 pm.
No biggie. Par of the course.
At least the picture can convey the protest message so they know we aren't going to move past it that easily.
As if that means anything to them?
You're a minority.
don't go to reddit other than to spread to good word of Lemmy and to downvote admins so I think that has more benefit to us than to them.
Reddit admins ABSOLUTELY RUINED by frequent EXPLETIVES and DOWNVOTES
It's a delusional circlejerk.

I look at it this way: it sucks, but it's not surprising - it's expected. There's no reason for them to cater to the users, because that's not how these things work. The people who made this decision
(a) mostly care about money
(b) were obviously willing to lose the favor of Reddit's users for money
(c) have built a platform who's monetization model has become somewhat at odds with what made Reddit good in the first place
(d) are probably going to succeed in making money from Reddit
It's sad, it really sucks. But, there's nothing we can really do about it, apart from things like post memes mocking Spez or making subreddits go "dark".
Neither of those are long term solutions.
I'd rather we moved on and let it go, tbh. We could be doing a lot more
Don't we want these big platforms to adopt ActivityPub?
No. We don't. The more hands they have in the fediverse pie, the more influence they have over it. The more influence they have, the more control. The more control, the more at the whim of their decisions you are. The more at the whim of their decisions, the more power they have over you.
This should be common sense at this point.

I suppose these days it's cheaper to find some half baked vulnerability and pray it lasts a while instead of just adding back doors in the devices
