This got me banned from Reddit Event with u/Spez (Steve Huffman) LOL

Lol at the sign-language interpreter, like Reddit gives half a shit about accessibility now.

I recognize that guy. He was a moderator of the r/jailbait subreddit for the many, many years it was hosted on Reddit.com.

Of the three people involved in Reddit's creation, he was the most useless and antithetical to reddit's greater vision.

Swartz was a far better person.

You know, I realize all the people who put in money want a return on their investment. I get it.

But what I can't forgive is killing 3rd party clients when your official client sucks all the donkey balls in every reality in every universe.

You couldn't come to a reasonable and sane fee for 3rd party clients? Barring that, you couldn't just buy a superior client like RiF and bolt your name on it?

Fuck Spez.

Oh so now they don't like ads

I’m sure their next “Reddit Event” will not have a real time chat.

Aww, you hurt their delicate fee-fees! How mean! /s

Also, lol at that pathetic sycophant's reply below your comment. Dude needs to stop twerking for spez.

Permanently Deleted

Reddit has become Facebook with a different management team. These people are motivated by profit and that's the only way their decisions make any kind of sense. Whenever we mix the profit motive with a service for people, the people will always play second fiddle. It's why mixing profit with healthcare is inhumane and it's what's so great about Wikipedia.

🫡 thank you for your service 🫡

So...what exactly was this event? Was it like a AMA? Or was it like one of those corporate circle jerk things where everyone says what they are supposed to say?

I got banned because I said "lemmy dot world" in reply to someone who said they wished reddit had an alternative.

We must all remember spez’ has an abnormal love of cats, among his other issues. Like keeping slaves and resource hoarding.

Yeah redditors can do that too, it would probably look somewhat like this:
Come to reddit, we have CEO who's an idiot but controls everything, a 100% closed API unless you pay exorbitant prices to use it, and we have advertisements everywhere, but WE NEED TO MAKE MONEY. So please come. We also have sociophants and trolls.

/Steve Huffman

lol you fucking legend.

If he doesn't want to accept dissenting opinions, he should do like Mr. Burns and only allow prefabricated text.
Lisa: "Mr. Burns your campaign seems to have the momentum of a run away freight train. Why are you so popular?"

Don't forget, he used to moderate r/jailbait.

Spez has like a bunch of fore written answers and then tries to fit them in the questions asked

-TitusRex, hero, probably banned now as well

lmao

Screw Reddit and spez. You did well, OP!

He did a talk and Q&A in England awhile back at I believe Oxford and he kept checking his watch, it just seemed rude.

he was a competitive ballroom dancer, who hacked his roommate’s Web site as a prank.

What a fun little image that conjures up.

You a real one bruh!

I hadn't thought about it until now but what do redditors who didn't migrate say about us? I'm really curious now but I don't want to look. I've only been on the site a couple times since the blackout and they were for specific reasons * I don't want to ruin my streak * . Does anyone here use both regularly?

*Edit

Worth it. It's a win/win really

Nice, keep it up

I'd ban you too for using that fucking emote.

And that was the comment with more "likes" 👍

Grande Ademir, melhor admin da melhor comunidade de lemmy.

To everyone else, come to lemmy.eco.br (or to Brazil)!!

You are the people's champ.

That face insists upon itself.

#PunchSpezsrslurredlittleface

This is the greatest thing I could have seen on the top of my page 😂 Keep spreading the word Lemmings!!

Good job hero

What was this event, and how did you manage to get your username showing without /u?

He looks exactly how I pictured it.

Spez has that empty stare of a person who knows the devil is about to collect

Lmao

Worth it

o7

What is up with Mr. Nosferatu hands in the little corner picture?

Based and anti-corpo pilled

I don't understand. Why did you get banned?

I love this

Oh god, that was cringey. Please, if you want to dunk on spez, or play to the camera in other ways, please write like you passed the 4th grade.

Spamming a live chat is just being a nuisance. Nobody's been annoyed into listening to a spammer.

To be fair, I would imagine that this event had some rule about not advertising in the chat in the ToS or stream rules fine print somewhere.

And as much as I dislike Steve and Reddit, I agree with Reddit on this one. You (or anyone else) shouldn't be abusing the chat of a competing service stream to advertise a different one. It is not the place for that and is rude. Please do not give existing Reddit users reason to believe all Lemmy users are rude rule breakers.

Good. You should probably also be banned from Lemmy for that embarrassing shitpost. Imagine spendinng time shilling Lemmy. Jesus Christ.
