    Insanity. I’ve been around a few times when people were talking about migrating but this truly does seem like the most real possibility yet. And I welcome it with open arms.

      What if they’re doing this, letting us all get riled up, and then after the black out they go “ok ok, we get it. We’ll reduce the cost down to insert still high but irritatingly doable number” and that was the plan all along. That they started outrageously high so they can land where they actually expected to be. A bunch of users go back grumbling but feeling like they still won, yet we got 4d cheesed.

      Or I’m just high.

        If this was meant to be a good PR thing for Reddit, they wouldn’t have done that terrible AMA. I really do thing Reddit is dead set on their plans right now.

          Spez and his ego are too invested in it now. He can’t back down, his ego won’t allow him to. Although, I could see a vote of no confidence from the board removing him and them saying “Oops our bad, we’ve removed him and we’re going to listen to the community.”

            Do we really need more examples of how to not manage a social platform and it’s PR?
            can we get some positive examples instead
