Aww, poor spez, missed the crypto hype by about a year. They say timing is the hardest part of product management, and spez again proves he is really fucking terrible at it.

News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

MODERATORS
Didn't bother reading their entire docs, but this all looks gamified as fuck. I knew this would happen, with these stupid points ingrained in every aspect of the site everything just became predatory and hostile unless you pay. It's literally a game of "free2play" users grinding whatever is needed to get points (which probably is not feasible) vs buying the "special subscriptions".
Then the introduction is laughable, I want to peek into the brains of these mfers who not even weeks ago were taking subreddits from mods by force, and now preach of community independence from platforms.

They just took away a shit load of freedom and had a PR disaster, so they're trying to fix by gaslighting us with crypto scam bullshit? God this company can not go out of business fast enough.
It is time for communities to break free of walled gardens and take ownership of their existence online.
Knowing Reddit, this means implementing blockchain technology and crypto shenanigans...and I'm right.
Ugh, I just left. Why does u/spez insist on coming up with all these shitty monetary schemes???
