How did he mess up? He’s cashing out and burning the place down behind him. This is all standard practice in vulture capitalism. It happens every day, but you don’t see or care because most of the companies it happens to aren’t centered around a social platform you spend all your free time on.
He’s not cashing out with the best possible circumstances is how he messed up. That’s like saying Elon bought Twitter at a highly inflated price and then crashing and burning all the advertising is doing a great job. Twitter is sinking into the abyss very slowly. It’ll still be around in a year or so but right now Twitter is only worth 1/4 of what Elon paid. Spez already lost like 20% of Reddit’s value after all of his sweet changes. These guys are idiots.
Yeah, because money is all that matters, lol. Obviously it does to him because that’s why he made all of these changes that are backfiring to making him less money. I bet he’ll sleep fine knowing he ruined a website and a lot of goodwill from people volunteering to make communities, because he’s that kind of stupid. Sounds like you would rather be rich than live a good life knowing you made the world better. Go get your flag and put it on top that mountain by yourself and everyone slowly walking away unless they want something from you, sounds greeeeaaaaaaat.
I’m not sure why you’re asduming that because I can see what he cares about, it must be all I care about too.
He absolutely will sleep fine; he doesn’t give a fuck about reddit or its communities. He never did. It was only ever about money. Yeah, it sucks what he’s done, but pretending he’s the loser in this situation when he’s going to live out his days in luxury and comfort while we’ve lost our communities and will always be stuck in the grind supporting the lifestyles of him and his ilk is embarrassingly delusional.
I’ve known quite a few extremely wealthy people and as a whole they were not happy. I would bet Spez isn’t living a great life now and it will hit him some day. Tbh, I don’t care all that much, I like it here.
They may not be happy, but neither are many of the rest of us. The difference is that they have the resources to be comfortable and healthy during their misery. 2/3 of us live paycheck-to-paycheck and can barely, or just flat out can’t, afford basic things like healthcare or maintenance on the vehicles we’re usually required to own to survive.
Being poor is not better than being rich, and only sheltered middle class morons seem to think it is.
Life can suck, but it can really suck when you have financial problems.
Personally I think human beings would be a lot happier if money did not exist. I don’t appreciate money past the extent it provides for my needs. As long as I can pay my bills I’m good. I simply don’t understand the obsession people have with money, but then it’s also a means to power. So basically it comes down to an obsession with power and control. What human trait defines an asshole better than that.

He’s cashing out with more money than he’ll be able to spend in his lifetime. Yeah, what a fucking rube.

Totally agree.
