I'm so glad they're unwavering in their commitment to foster growth of the fediverse!

simplify so they can lay off mods and let ai go on autopilot. like an automatic cow milker.

I find it funny that a 3rd party app can be "profitable" but reddit cant be profitable without alienating a sizeable chunk of their userbase.

Reddit has increasingly become a cesspit of racism and bigotry anyways, and I find Im going there less and less.

I need to get used to how lemmy works and find my 3d printing people here.

somebody else pointed this out, but it's honestly bizarre he's going in on the "we aren't making any money" ploy in preparation for the ipo

what's the pitch to the investors? "please by shares in this unprofitable company, in the hope that we can become profitable by pissing off our userbase"?

I wonder if they expect to be able to have chatGPT supply all the memes.

Just a textbook case of not knowing the free labor was the product.

Man, this is so dumb; unfortunately, if they open up all the subs, people are just gonna rush back because there's no reason to try to make anything else work.

Yeah, this sounds like the reddit I've come to know 😒
