Surely if I stick up for rich people on the Internet I'll eventually get a sweet job offer from them, right?

I was actually thinking that myself when I made this topic.

Although I wouldn't say it's ruined forever as of yet. That remains to be seen on what direction they go in from here as a result of that.

Although Reddit is shit anyway.

The nba and nhl reddits are blacked out during the finals. Absolutely ridiculous

Sounds like proper timing for a strike/boycott. Doing so outside of the season would go completely unnoticed.

Except the reddit executives don't care that we can't discuss the Stanley cup on the hockey subreddit. They care that people using third party apps are reducing their ad revenue.

Reddit execs will weather the 'storm' and you all will be back just as you were before, but in the mean time I'll be more bored at work with less options to doom scroll. I suppose I could go to Twitter or Facebook instead. It's not like their executives are horrible evil people or anything....

I do not have a horse in this race. I might check out a reddit thread if it pops up in a google search, but that's it.

Well no, the people who belonged to those subreddits before they became locked out are still good

People not being able to access a social media site during a time that would normally drive substantial social media traffic is a pretty major hit to their ad revenue. Quite possibly a larger one than third-party apps cause.

In my last job a small group of young ones (16-20) were messing around during training (throwing things, vaping, swearing) and the rest of the group had to be constantly interrupted during training for the trainers boss to give these people a "smart chat". Inevitably I quit the job as it was more hassle than it was worth putting up with those people and I feel I didn't learn shit. No doubt others probably did the same too.

oh i assure you, they care, considering they're trying to drive up their ipo

the biggest and most effective way of communicating displeasure towards a company is to affect their bottom line, and reddit is losing a loooooot of money with the blackout

Pretty much every single time I log on to the Internet.

Somebody smeared their #2 on the walls and floors of the restroom facility where I work, prompting the company to shut it down for several weeks (and truck in a bunch of portable johns for people to use) while they installed security cameras and badge-in terminals to the facility.
