      Between him and Spez, they’ve done a great job. 😂

        He is spez’ idol. So while Reddit’s circles the drain and value decreases, they’ll will no doubt kill old.reddit on August 1st or something dumb, followed by a posting limit next year. 🤣

          Spez didn’t borrow billions of dollars he has to pay back with interest though so he won’t need to fire almost all his engineers.

          He did however send all the most talented developers working under the platform to his biggest competitor so that wasn’t smart.

      It is a success. Actually searched out Mastodon to add to my rss feeds for the first time for accounts that had them.

        The biggest obstacle for Bluesky is the invite-only nature of it right now. It won’t be able to grow into the “next big thing” until the masses can move over to it.
