Hes such an asshole

"Hey guys I know we pissed off a lot of our user base, but don't worry they'll come crawling back despite our assholery!"

Unfortunately, he's probably correct. I think a lot of people are just going to cave and download the official app eventually, if they haven't already.

The lazy will.

Yeah, and it's helpful to remember that I don't want the content of the lazy, even if I do hate that the company will still get the $$$.

It's his self-assuredness that bothers me most. If his attitude towards his community (or product rather) are this bad pre-IPO just wait until after and they have to keep announcing revenue growth to Wallstreet every quarter.

Like the world's largest kidney stone, hopefully.

I hope he falls over and hurts his knee.
-
I hope he steps on some legos while barefoot.
-
I hope he steps on a plug...
...In the UK

I accidently ended up on Reddit twice today through Google searches, I'm now adding -Site:Reddit.com to all my searches.

You could also consider using uBlacklist to hide those results.
Add these lines to your blocklist to remove all Reddit results:
*://*.reddit.com/* *://reddit.com/*-
Could also just look at the cached version of the page, that's what I've been doing on Google

Yea but theres so much info on reddit that isnt on lemmy yet. We're so far a pretty small community which is nice. But I think that using reddit to find info on specific topics is fine, but I wont create another account nor will I browse there.

Maybe mods will keep more subreddits down indefinitely then.
Hopefully... there's another post on /c/lemmyworld stating that /r/adviceanimals forcibly removed the top moderator.
I'm guessing that they will replace all of the mod teams and forcibly re-open the subreddits.
Called it.
Still he's going to end up with a site with lesser quality and mods that will have a harder time to moderate until the supposed new tools actually work (if they actually work).
Honestly? I think 4chan could have a field day trolling in there like they love to do.
Oh I am sure they’re going to end up putting back a large number of subs. It’s going to happen. The place will fill up with trash if there aren’t good dedicated mods taking care of things but I’m sure the admins are going to force the major subs to reopen.
Doubt that will go as well as they're expecting it to.
Good luck doing that for 8000 subs
I guess I understand why subreddits cannot be deleted altogether, but BOY it'd be nice to see. Or at least delete all the content before leaving... 👀
I hope so!
