Kristallmopt is on as Reddit Corporate kicks off the day with one last warning and it’s before Reddit’s office hours even start

They are MELTING DOWN in blackoutcord. Subs reopening left and right in a desperate bid to keep their volunteer positions. BuckRowdy is trying to maintain control of the situation but it’s not going well.

This was just sent to /r/aww. /r/aww holds the line :marseydarkxd:

I’m legitimately disgusted by these people. Obviously there’s nothing less important or serious than moderating a fucking subforum, but they insist to themselves and each other that this moderating is some great moral good and they’re the bulwark against actual fascism and life-threatening disinformation and genocide and such. This action of Reddit’s doesn’t actually change anything, but they also pretend to themselves that it does.

These are the things they actually believe.

And they’re just rolling over and taking it and letting actual fascism and genocide and what the fuck ever win because they’re afraid of losing their fake jobs that they can no longer do? And letting what they believe to be corporate greed from a multibillion dollar corporation win? To protect their ability to do free labor for that corporation??????

Jannies are actual, literal subhumans.

because they’re afraid of losing their fake jobs

that was clear from the start when they decided to just hold subs hostage instead of threaten to murder them to get their way.

which i mean they got their way almost immediately, didn't they? wasn't this mostly about "omg muh mod cowtools" and reddit right away said "you'll still have them dingus"? i've been very confused as to why this has all lasted so long after they got exactly what i thought they wanted...

I think reddit never planned to take away mod cowtools. Their target was always 3rd party apps like Apollo which make millions of requests and are commercial on their own (via ads & in app purchases). Maybe large API usage done by companies like OpenAI as well (which trained ChatGPT with the help of reddit).

yeah, that's what i thought was going on too. that reddit was just trying to end people getting rich off their platform and reddit earning nothing from it. i've only been half paying attention to all of this, though, so maybe i'm way off base.

The truth is spez has blown $350 million dollars of investment money and has nothing to show for it except for downsizing to a smaller office outside San Francisco city limits. His genius plan to satisfy investors? Reddit earns $1.19 per year per user. He thinks, by forcing third party users to his dogshit app to show some ads, that Reddit will make a couple extra million a year in revenue. This extra $2-3 million per year will pay back $350 million in investor capitol...next century lmfao.

This explains why he was demanding $20 mil from Apollo. Apparently Reddit is Fun has 2-3x the users, so we can guess they were unironically hoping for $80-$100 million a year in API fees.

Ppl in /r/conspiracy and twitter are suggesting it's a deal with OpenAI, because of the reddit execs close ties with the execs of that company.

It used to be the API was a free way to get premium training data. Not anymore. They're locking the doors behind them.

Spez is big mad about open ai clowning on him. Spez could’ve made api access a paid service for research data, but he didn’t. Spez could’ve built his own ChatGPT using his own data but he built Snoovatars instead.

Now that he is exposed for the useless, do nothing loser that he is, he’s grasping at anything to show investors that he’s worth keeping around.

I think I'm actually more annoyed that the only jannies that didn't "protest" are the ones running political astroturfing subreddits like /r/politics and /r/whitepeopletwitter. Can't let Redditors go a day without being propagandised.

If the current situation is truly "re-open or we hand your sub to those other powerjannies", Reddit is truly fricked sideways.

WPT is Merari’s and he’s on record having a full-on sobbing crying fit when he thought he was going to lose his mop because, and I quote, “Please. Reddit is all I have. Please don’t take this from me.”

I don’t know who mods /r/politics but I imagine it’s real paid DNC operatives and Reddit wouldn’t allow it to close even if actual jannies had it because they have contracts to uphold with PACs.

Yes! If they actually believed in what they were saying, all 100 of them that control all of Reddit would have gotten together and de-modded themselves all at once leaving subs unmanaged. It's the only true way I think they could have fricked over Reddit but they'll never give up power. It's all they want, and they hide it behind this "I want to save gay people and minorities from mean posts!" bullshit.

Seriouspost: Reddit is at an impasse because they are demanding ever more from their unpaid janissary corps as scale of communities increase and the breadth of content allowed is decreasing every day

Their options are:

  • pay the existing jannies (lolno)

  • hire professional moderators (costs money reddit doesn't have, and impossible to replicate the effort some people put into communities)

  • relax content standards (no way advertisers and the powerjannies allow this)
