He awarded a unique “pimp daddy” trophy to the creator of the sub and was suspected to be active on there under an Alt account. He also publicly defended the sub as a demonstration of free speech as the ceo of reddit and it didn’t actually get removed until it became a big deal in the news and they got really bad PR. You can find out a little more from this post a couple of weeks ago.
Did you see the post a couple of days ago that showed ai language bots replying in reddit threads?
The admins are making bots shit on alternatives and downplay the protests. There’s a very real possibility that you’re being responded to by ai.
All your comments are likely being shadow banned. They’re not letting people talk about spez on reddit anymore.
That’s because Huffman doesn’t believe that ongoing community is his ticket to millions. He believes selling data to ai learning programs is. They don’t need continuing users for that when they’re sitting on almost two decades of content.
Just look at the actual actions of the admins. They’re removing mods for privatizing subs. They’re restoring erased content. They’re shadow banning comments critical of the system. They’re forcefully reverting changes to sub rules.
They aren’t trying to get 20 million from the likes of a 500k/year company like Apollo, they’re trying to get 20 million from billionaire companies like Google, Microsoft, Apple, etc. that are maybe more willing to shell out that kind of money for an emerging technology. Killing third party apps wasn’t their goal, it was just an incredibly unpopular but necessary side effect because those apps use the same api that ai learning programs do.
You should consider posting that screenshot around the bigger subs that are still resisting. Ask them to repost it as well. Don’t go quietly, let the whole site see what lengths the admins are going to for the illusion that everything is fine.
No offense, this is a great site, but the word isn’t going to get out from here.
Well if the court didn’t engage in clearly partisan politics, maybe the liberal justices wouldn’t have anything to criticize.
Does he realize how bad it looks when he voices that his problem is criticism and not like, I don’t know, taking money from political interests? Or refusing to recuse in cases where there’s a relative directly involved?
