    Yup. And Spez is 2x of an idiot as Musk, not realising that Musk and Twitter are in a completely different situation than himself and Reddit. Twitter is not too big to fail, but it can endure some beating, and Musk can throw enough money at the problems until they go away; neither applies to Spez+Reddit.

    And due to how network effect works in both platforms, Reddit Inc. will only notice the problem when it’s too late. In Twitter if you get “anchor” people leaving, you see some exodus that you can address; but in Reddit it’s all about the content, and actions lowering the overall content quality and diversity will be only noticed after months of being implemented.
