Steve Huffman said in an interview that Elon Musk's cost-cutting at Twitter was inspiring and that the two have chatted "a handful of times."

The same twitter that has gone in the shithole and is so bad that they're literally getting courts to order their eviction for not paying rent.

He looked at Twitter and said, “Oh, that’s how you get Nazis to the front page. Let’s do that.”

Reddit and Twitter were were I found all my left wing organizations and protests from 2015-2021. I’m not surprised the same formula is being used on both of them.

I see you're on the same site I am, so FYI - there is an edit link under the "more" menu under your comments! (reply / boost / more)

It's amazing how shitheads tend to clump together!

How long until Reddit gets evicted from their office?

[–] robyr@kbin.social 10 points 1 year ago

303 2nd St is EXPENSIVE office space. I live about a block away and my old company used to rent a floor there. We were profitable and it was too expensive for us. If they get evicted a scant couple months after moving into the new space I will laugh my ass off.

To bad there's no decentralized content aggregation platform where people can subscribe and comment between different sites...oh wait

[–] Wisely@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

If something like that existed I would sign up and make dumb comments like this.

With all the (rightful) hate Elon and the Twitter debacle had on Reddit, it's a super good look to show your admiration of the very person your platform hated

To be fair, if I ran a competing social media site, I'd also be happy about recent Twitter changes.

I am tired of all these two-bit villains running tech companies.

[–] root_beer@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well golly.

What a surprise.

[–] 42triangles@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Honestly I am surprised.

I didn't expect much, but I expected more than this quite frankly.

Aaron Swartz probably turning in his grave.

u/spez is a terrorist.

[–] earthling@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Keep digging, idiot.

The saddest part about this is that Elon probably doesn't think anything about Huffman at all. Imagine having a CEO-boner for Musk of all people to the point where you talk about him during interviews and can only vaguely hint that you've "talked" when pressed for details.
