I hope Spez gets explosive diarrhea every day for the rest of his life.

And if for some weird reason he is into that, then I hope he gets concrete constipation every day for the rest of his life instead.

As a bearer of IBS, this is evil. I like it.

Concrete constipation would be a very short life.

"the users are not in support of [the blackout]"

Which users did you poll about this, buddy?

Lucky it wouldn't be James Corden on r/pics.

Mr. Huffman is stretching in a variety of directions here. Reddit is not a feudal government, or a city in any sense; neither is it ultimately “democratic,” as he frequently suggests. It’s an advertising and subscription-supported web service that also depends on free content and unpaid labor from its users. It is, substantially, in the same business as Meta, YouTube, Twitter, and TikTok — giving people something to use mostly for free in exchange for their monetizable time and attention.

I really appreciated this callout in the article.

I'm enjoying learning about the alternatives though.

Reddit is just as horrible as Twitter. Fuck Reddit. Invest in Lemmy or find something else to do. Life is precious, reddit is toxic waste.
