It warms my heart to see so much fuck spez amidst the normal nation-state flag spam.

Thank you for the screenshot so I don’t have to give Reddit any traffic.

If you sort by New on /r/place people are asking who is Spez.

This is appalling

Sounds like that Spez person is a very popular porn star.

Yes he’s the guy that flirted with doing underage porn while moderating the jailbait sub.

Aaaah, is it the one who is a doctor, an engineer, a police officer, a firefighter, a teacher, a carpenter and everything else? Is that very talented dude?

Johnny Sins would probably be a more competent CEO than Spez by wearing a suit and fucking someone on the couch.

Close. He peddled borderline CP when he was a mere mod.

Classic tactic. Let em rant in a special “freedom zone” and do nothing else. I know, obvious, but still maddening. I left reddit behind forever.

Yeah there is no way they didn’t intend this when they opened it back up. It’s protest theatre, give them a punching bag so they don’t stir up real shit.

Being enraged is also being engaged (see Fox News).

So this was a great tactic because all the people that could have left reddit are still there yelling into the void.

Exactly my thoughts. They saw a drop in traffic this month after the API changes killed 3rd party apps and just want to boost this month’s numbers so it doesn’t hurt their valuation and upcoming IPO further.

I feel like those people are pretty dumb. Like, if they could all just leave and go elsewhere, they’d be much better off than yelling in circles and not getting anything accomplished.

The website is obviously run by a crazy fuckhead CEO, so might as well go elsewhere - especially somewhere decentralized where that can’t be a problem.
