Spez won't have the most downvoted comment in history, he'll edit the downvotes away before it reaches a couple thousand.

[–] Dalek@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

100%. If he doesn’t they’ll by far be the most downvoted in history of reddit

[–] eric5949@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

Honestly idk, pride and accomplishment is actually so far down it might keep it.

[–] Bezbakri@kbin.social 11 points 1 year ago

Or he'll just disable voting to not hurt his ego.

[–] krolden@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

I think he's proven many times he doesn't give a shit about what his users think of him.

[–] Moonrise2473@lemmy.ml 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah now i understand! It's AMA - ASK me everything. That's why he is ignoring all the questions. We can just ask questions, not get answers

[–] xyon@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago

lol every answer he's actually commented in has been downvoted to fuck

[–] 1hitsong@lemmy.ml 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

His opening introduction needs to be an apology directly to Apollo's dev. Not a corporate deflection apology, a sincere apology for pulling his name through the mud.

It won't happen because VC & IPO money hangs in the balance of showing no weakness, so I fully expect a doubling down.

That's not just doubling down, that's straight up gaslighting.

[–] revalisgale@lemmy.ml 18 points 1 year ago

Damn...this is embarrassing. A child could come up with a better answer

Hard support for anyone leaking phone calls of reddit administrators.

[–] krolden@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

Or any other evil millionaire+ techbro capitalists really

[–] dessalines@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Lol nice. When does that start btw?

[–] dingus@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I saw that it was at 1030am PT

EDIT: They're late. Shocking. These chucklefucks couldn't organize their way out of a wet paper bag.

EDIT 2: The first question he answered is such a shit question to answer, and his answer is the same line they've been feeding for years about the official app. lmao what a fucking maroon. The comment he replied to had 7 upvotes when he replied to it while igorning comments with over 200 upvotes at the time.

EDIT 3: And he's immediately resorted to gaslighting about the Apollo dev. great look going there, spez.

[–] Amir@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

In about 1.5h from now according to a source I saw on /r/Save3rdPartyApps

[–] miz_nocturnal@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

In a few minutes I think! ...10:30 PT is what I'm seeing on reddit so far!

[–] stanleytweedle@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

"Plead to subreddits to not blackout" probably won't be direct, but he'll make asinine points that basically say "You shouldn't, and don't, but I'm not going to ask nicely for peasants not to revolt because you're all just peasants".

[–] shortkid113@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How much do you want to bet that they just remove mods from popular blacked out ones, then reopen it with admins running them?

[–] markipol@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

That was my theory, and as soon as I saw the line about "Reddit approved moderators" having exclusive access to a feature (don't remember what one, something to do with mod bots I think) it was confirmed. I doubt many very popular subreddits will be permanently disabled anyway (the only way you'd get anywhere, the WGA doesn't say "we won't work for 2 days and will go back to work after those 2 days regardless of what happens") but those that are will just be forcibly re opened and mods replaced.

They better hurry, my popcorn is getting cold.

[–] miz_nocturnal@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

You're in the right place. I think they're late, but I also see conflicting information about when it starts. I'm not surprised at the disorganization honestly.

[–] miz_nocturnal@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago

It's happening! ama

[–] lazylion_ca@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago

This amuses me.

spez editing his response, poor spez forgot to remove the "A:"

[–] ansik@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That bingo card is on easy mode, my bet is P column within an hour of starting! :’D

[–] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I see your 1 hour, and raise you 25mins tops!

Edit: when I opened the comments they didn't all load the first time, I hadn't known it had already kicked off. It does look like I may have been right though

[–] FriendlyFusion@beehaw.org 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is both hilarious and sad

[–] stanleytweedle@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] FriendlyFusion@beehaw.org 6 points 1 year ago

Getting the popcorn ready

[–] HawkMan@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

Well the hindsight and free ones where never going to be crossed off.

[–] mrchildyeeter@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago
