In the corp world as well, and I can say with a lot of certainty that spez knew and likely hoped this would be leaked publicly. It was written both with the intention of assuaging current staff and angling their optics for the watching public. My company had a minor recent PR issue and our CEO drafted and sent something very similar.

The official Reddit really is so bad. Using Mlem on iOS for now, but I would die for an Apollo-for-Lemmy client. (Christian, plz)
I work on a corporate team and often companies will allow team members to wear anything to work as long as it’s branded. This, employees have an incentive to spend that money to customize their look at work, if that’s important to them. It is to some people.
My company has a code that brings all items down to cost, and I have bought some uniform items that way to mix up what I wear at work.
The company that I work for is a small business with a great local reputation; wearing my company’s logo is a positive for me. Can’t say that would be the case if I worked for Reddit.
If my company referred to us as anything but “team members” I’d die on the spot.
Deleted my account, removed Apollo, starting to feel at home on Lemmy. No way I’m going back.
You hit the nail on the head! It’s going to be full of ick just like Twitter. Ah well.
I like Lemmy for what it is. Feels like a return to an earlier web experience.
I spent my whole life wishing I’d been born a boy, but in a completely cis way.
I’ll co-sign all of that! Niche stuff is why I was on Reddit.
Fitness for FTM guys, my city’s local page, subs for my dogs’ specific breeds, Jewish cooking. The communities that grew organically in n niche spots brought me a lot of joy.
Also hey! Kayaking! If you know of a Lemmy community for it, I’m game! Always nice to run into other paddlers.
I swapped Apollo with mlem and I miss Christian’s work so much. Really the pinnacle of a third-party client. I would love to see where he goes next, but I’d love to see an app for accessing Lemmy or Mastodon.
I love being lazy but in a fast way.
Fuck this loser. Good on his neighbors.
