I first saw the announcment in r/save3rdpartyapps (my only sub). The AMA is taking place at r/reddit, no time was given, just says “today”
You must log in or register to comment.
I legitimately don’t understand what they’re hoping to gain from the AMA. Unless spez is going to start with “We were wrong, we’re rolling back the changes” then there’s nothing to be said. They ran over 3rd party apps that millions of their users use for no reason. This will be a total disaster.
Isn’t there a long long history of people thinking they can AMA their way out of a PR disaster and end up stepping in it?
The worst part about not setting a time is that I don’t know when to start making popcorn.
This is going to be epic. I can’t believe how out of touch this guy is.
It’s a banana, Michael, what can it cost, $10?
Well that was a disaster. Guess I’ll be spending time here now.
Me too. That AMA was a joke and made me want to uninstall Reddit.
The AMA is already over
Yeah, I posted this 3 days ago. I doubt if an AMA lasts for days.
I want to see it but at the same time I know I will regret it. The last time he never answered straight and avoided tough questions. It’s not going to be different this time. I would love to be proven wrong though.
Edit: called it
I read several comments claiming the ceo edited other people’s comments and changed downvotes to upvotes during the last ama.
Probably a waste of time.
Yup it happened, back in 2016 during the elections. He edited comments (and posts I think) in r/the_donald, people originally said “f*ck spez” and he edited them with the moderators usernames. Things like that.

Now, let me just say that I am aware of how toxic that sub was, but regardless spez opened a bad precedent
