Reddit CEO says the mods leading a punishing blackout are too powerful and he will change the site's rules to weaken them - VLemmy

I've seen some here openly despair that leaving reddit didn't do anything.

Spez, CEO of Reddit and former mod of the r/jailbait subreddit losing his shit very publically for days proves otherwise.

...And it's also a reminder that the reddit community we loved has already been destroyed by ownership, anyone returning would be returning to a shadow that disdains its own users and works to disempower them with every update. They're even undeleting user's deleted posts. If they can't respect users enough to be able to delete their own content, why enrich them?

it took them less then a week to go from "were a community" to "shut up and do as your told". fuck that and them. whether kbin or lemmy works out only the future knows so far but im done with reddit.
Lol, this encapsulates it so well. But I am also out of that “community” now. Still debating whether to delete my account.
