I’m convinced a lot of admins are not happy with the direction reddit is going. You tend to notice it in little things, like them accidentally using old.reddit.com in their monthly newsletter. I’d love to see the shitshow going on behind the scenes.
When I read it, it sounded like they heard everything we were protesting in favor of, harvested all those words, and put it on the press release in order to try to convince some of the people on the edge of breaking free to stay, and maybe entice some of high-karma people who left to come back. All while glossing over that what they’re saying is the exact opposite of what they’re doing.
I wonder if whoever wrote that announcement really doesn’t see the irony in what they wrote. Or maybe they do and they secretly hate reddit?
Either way, lollercoaster. Lollercopter. Lollapalooza.
