Automattic CEO calls Tumblr his 'biggest failure' so far - Lemmy

Who’d’ve thunk that not only doing everything your userbase does not want but also actively bullying a large portion of that userbase into leaving wouldn’t create revenue? No, being quirky on main and self-deprecating every once in a while won’t change that.

Edit: this sounds like “bullying people into leaving” and “what the userbase does not want” are two different things. That’s not what I meant. I’m overthinking this. I strongly deny any accusation of ever having pissed on a poor.

Nahhh your comment didn’t come across like you think, it totally makes sense. They really fucked the web site completely.
