Yeesh. With how both of those places are going, I sure am thankful I have at least here to talk about sports, wrestling and whatever. Those ships are sinking.

in what world does someone see how musk more or less tanked a company he paid 44 billion dollars for and think "that's it, that's the business plan I should copy!"

No wonder they call him Huffman because this man must be high on something.

Imagine seeing Elon Musk completely tank the business and reputation of a major social media platform and go "That sounds like a good idea!"

If Reddit wants to improve, reigning in the mods would be a good way to go. Mods spoil the site, so many of them are neckbeards on a power trip taking delete in banning people and removing posts for minor infractions. Or enforcing stupid rules. And automods--automatically removing post because the crummy algorithm detects a certain keyword or an incorrect flair, are even worse. The worst has to be the Japan Travel subreddit. One of the rules is no posts about itineraries and itinerary advice. That's like the entire point of a travel board--to get advice from people who have been to Japan before or who live there about less known attractions, what's a shitty tourist trap and the like. I got IP banned out of the blue with no warning. It had been a while since I'd been temporarily suspended. They applied this to any name that I had, even if it was an account I forgot that was created before the account that got "permanently" suspended. You have no recourse and no way to appeal. It's so stupid. Reddit let me truly cut loose and it helped my self-esteem when something that I considered mundane, would get 4k upvotes on a whim. Now I don't have that and that's one less forum to be myself.

I got banned in a sub for explaining a joke in the Big Bang Theory, near as I can tell it was because it contained the word nude, so the Mod just lost his mind. Sheldon asks Penny why she has the Chinese word for soup tattooed on her. Someone asked about something about it. I explained what happened, in the episode. Banned.

The same world a guy that's been actively protecting far right content under the guise of 'Valuable discourse' and has been at war with the user base for years now has an excuse to go completely mask off as Elon isn't even pretending not to be a garbage bag presiding over a dumpster fire. Investors like what Elon's doing so he's rolling the dice on them liking him if he does the same.

So they're now telling mods to open up or be replaced. Isn't it funny how they'll happily ignore far right recruitment subs, racism and completely unmoderated free for alls despite the reddit community begging them to do something, but now communities must be heard!

Well you see, he made a ton of money in the process and greedy arseholes care about literally nothing else. In fact, they seem to think destroying lives and companies somehow means they're gaining more. We really need to stop allowing these parasites to run businesses. R/pics now only allows “pictures of John Oliver looking sexy” So... any picture of John Oliver? in what world does someone see how musk more or less tanked a company he paid 44 billion dollars for and think "that's it, that's the business plan I should copy!" The same world that hands bozos like these free money because they're" job creators" while shaming anyone else for assisted living. Socialism is bad except for those who are already wealthy!

Who looks at Twitter's performance since Musk took over and says "yes, let's do that"?

Seems like most subreddits are full of whiners about certain shows. 99.9% of the same recycled tropes/memes.

r/squaredcircle is back... Lol them making a big stand about we're not backing down, we're locking down for as long as it takes! Then they barely lasted a week before returning because the mods didn't want to lose their positions. I wouldn't even care if they didn't even join in the shutdown to begin with but to talk all big then cave in so easily is hilarious.

Not only that but they were caught shitposting amongst themselves while the subreddit was private, just as mods on basically every subreddit that went down have been caught doing, from MMA to NBA to NFL and so on. Simply epic!
