They’re getting voted into oblivion on the AMA, but u/ChariotWheel is helpfully cut-and-pasting and formatting them here.
“We are not profitable” -CEO of a company that is about to IPO
… Weird flex but okay.
While failing to mention the contribution that third party apps made to reddit’s popularity.
They also promised to support third party clients for a long time - classic bait and switch.
“we’re working on” “we’re not 100% sure we’re happy with” “could be interesting someday” “we haven’t figured out yet”
Maybe you should have figured all of this out before you asked for developers to pay absorbent amounts and shift more people on to your official apps?
I love your typo/autocorrect. “Absorbant” amounts. I picture huge piles of money being used as sponges but not doing anything useful.
I have very bad typing issues lol. I write things super badly, and then rewrite until spell check gives me something and since I don’t know how it’s spelled I’ll just be like “yep, that looks good.”
I make frequent typing errors too. I’ve accepted it as part of my quirks. That’s just how I am 🤷♂️
One day the AI overlord’s will type for you only by thinking about it. Untill then you can use GPT 😬
It’s crazy hearing how nonresponsive the reddit team has been to 3rd party devs.
Someone replied to him with “Aaron would be ashamed of the person you’ve become” and I’ve never seen such a succinct destruction of a human being in a long time. Shame Steve has no soul.
He may not get the most downvoted comment in reddit history. But Spez is likely to end up with the most brutal AMA in history…
“Thank you for all the years of hardwork single handedly creating the greatest platform and gracing us with your presence here today. With regards to the api changes and third party apps, I was just wondering if you had started the process of going and fucking yourself? you greedy little pigboy.” -u/OoooThatsTheSpot
He doesn’t seem to understand that when it’s his word against Christian’s, we will trust the person who has demonstrated a history of caring about engaging with the community and producing good work, AND who happens to have brought the receipts.
I just went through and downvoted all his responses. They’re all pathetic
All three of them!? You madman!
