Steve Huffman is pissing all over Aaron Schwartz's grave, and completely abandoning the ideals that was once a foundation of Reddit. Reddit was originally open source, Aaron died in 2013, and by 2017, Reddit had abandoned the open source / community philosophy entirely.

Never forget Aaron Schwartz.

I have to believe Aaron would be leading the charge to Lemmy if he were still alive today.

As a computer nerd I never knew about a lot of what this wiki article described, and I'm something of a news junkie to boot. It was a great read.

From the wiki article...

Swartz wrote in his Guerilla Open Access Manifesto:[47]

The world's entire scientific ... heritage ... is increasingly being digitized and locked up by a handful of private corporations....

And interesting quote, in light of the current situation going on at Reddit right now.

I remember when Ellen Pao was the nightmare and spez wasn't yet perceived as the fuck he actually is. Different times, I guess the devil you know is better sometimes. Otherwise you get spez, fuck spez.
