Spez really is going full Elon!

I wonder how it'll work on sites like Reddit. Imagine paying for verification only to get downvoted and "silence brand"ed by people

[–] FlippyOne@kbin.social 48 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The next step will be preventing downvotes on branded accounts

They made ad accounts unable to be blocked a year or so ago so downvote preventing doesn’t seem too wild. It’s why you couldn’t block that Christian account that always posted “He gets you” stuff.

It’s actually so cringe how he looks up to Elon and blatantly copies him as if he’s a role model businessman. Just pathetic.

At this rate, he’ll also copy musk’s advertiser turnaround and changes in company valuation

Can't wait until he renames Reddit to W.
