A man who grabbed our concept of a centralized internet by the balls and squeezed it so hard that the Lemmy’s user count 65xed in a 3 months period. Thank you for your service

    After seeing his face I'd rather use a different terminology.

    It really is funny. The only reason I went to reddit is that my phone app for news at the time (2011) took a shit and someone recommended reddit. I downloaded an app and that was the only way I interacted with reddit for over a decade. Then he killed that app and I figured if I'm going to have to adjust to a new app, I'm going elsewhere. What a dumbass.

    Fuck Musk, Spez, and Zuck, and throw in Gates and Bezos while you're at it. Each of them has made their own personal empires of shit.

    My first reaction upon seeing this picture is "that guy has serious nazi energy" Sure enough, I was right.

    When I look at the guy and then at what he did. I think he really looks the part.

    I believe this is Steve Huffman (aka u/spez) the co-founder and CEO of Reddit. (wikipedia)

    This controversy is what this post is most likely referring to.

    Reddit is the only major platform I've ever been banned from. And no it wasn't intentional.

    I hope the bots are helping with that ad revenue you were so concerned about milking from the user base with your shitty app. Was it worth it, dumbass?

    We all know the BIGGEST promoter of the Fediverse but he's certainly the biggest for Lemmy!

    He may even be more skilled at ruining platforms than Elon Musk, and that is no easy task

    Wait, is that spez? I kinda pictured him looking more pale and android like, more similar to zuck than this.

    A man that declared that he got his vision surgically corrected because he looked forward to sniping "looters" from the lookout tower of his bunker is the most cringe imaginable Immortan Joe LARPer. bakunin-immortan

    Lemmy, sure, but probably not the fediverse I'd guess, since the most popular fedi platform is mastodon, meant to recreate Twitter rather than Reddit
