Between this and the huge profit motive the media has in riding this chaos train into the sunset for as long as possible, things definitely aren't gonna change.
Yeah I think this is the Occam’s razor explanation that makes more sense. And why might Reddit be doing such a similar thing so soon after twitter? Spez has said he’s in touch with Elon and admires his business decisions. Simple as that.
Teah but it's not like the predominant mode of the website and it's not the same kind of like cult of personality you get with youtube creators. Poem for your sprog is like a novel little thing you randomly run into on the site and are like, ah cute. But if that kinda gimmicky shit was all the site revolved around it would for sure not be the same place anymore and I think it would lose a lot of people.
I feel like a big part of the appeal of reddit was that it was kind of a sea of anonymous people and mostly sidestepped the cult of personality that thrives on other forms of social media.
This is a big fucking gamble on their part I think.
It wasn't really worth it to pay a subscription for the pixel pal unfortunately and the free version isn't as full featured as it was on Apollo so no dice for me.
