That's the thing. His website isn't great because of him. It was great in spite of him.
I hope hope hope this pushes people who were on the fence off of that platform.

user protest on the site this week is led by a minority of moderators and doesn’t have wide support.
homie what? This was a big blackout and the old dogs are getting pissed. But yeah the reddit tikTok crowd doesn't care and they can stay there

If he didn't say anything, this might very well have blown over.
Instead he's inciting people to leave.
Huffman, also a Reddit co-founder, said he plans to pursue changes to Reddit’s moderator removal policy to allow ordinary users to vote moderators out more easily if their decisions aren’t popular.
We'll see how that goes. I can hear the foundry churning out the AI bots to outnumber the human users.
He said the new system would be more democratic and allow a wider set of people to hold moderators accountable.
Yeah right.
Putting out the fire with gasoline.
Actions speak louder than words. He may say that it's a minority, but we're clearly making an impact.
"reddit tikTok crowd" This is my distillation of what's going on too. They know what they are doing. They don't care. They will be fine. They are just changing their target audience and getting rid of the long-form text(!!!) boomers. :)
R/apple has already caved. They should’ve stuck it out and then all get removed and come here. Now they just look like a bunch of yes men who want to cling on to power in the sub.
So what, does that make him the king they're revolting against?
Man who founds reddit and is now ceo complains that mods make a sub and then stay the mod regardless of how long the sub is around.
You can’t make this shit up.
Keep in mind that he sold Reddit when it had 75k users.
His decision-making track record is a bit messy.
Alex was the intelligent one.
Yeah really. But, I'm sure he's surrounded by people -- investors, other CEOs who love the precedent of exploiting their volunteers, probably most if not all Reddit high-level staff -- encouraging him and telling him it's going well. Back in the 1990s Microsoft was known as being in a reality distortion field and I've seen similar things happen at other companies as well.
I’m also sure he’s mad he’s not making that Facebook money - he specifically brought up how much they make in comparison.
He's mad the value of his stake in the company is going down the toilet before the IPO.
If the IPO happens, won't there be a board of directors who can fire him?
Yeah but with a nice golden parachute.
Narcissistic tendencies? He's mad that he is getting a bad rep, so he antagonizes even more those that are criticizing him instead of doing what any other sensible person would do (keep quiet and let the storm pass). I doubt he listens to anyone around him, PR team after the AMA would have told him to keep his mouth shut.
thanks for using Leebra!

Interesting take from a multi-billion dollar company that relies on unpaid content creators and moderators.
