This is the greatest thing I could have seen on the top of my page 😂 Keep spreading the word Lemmings!!
Oh so now they don’t like ads
Only ads that serve them are allowed
You are the people’s champ.
Some of those that run corporates…
🫡 thank you for your service 🫡
It was an honor, sir!
Screw Reddit and spez. You did well, OP!
We must all remember spez’ has an abnormal love of cats, among his other issues. Like keeping slaves and resource hoarding.
I love this
I recognize that guy. He was a moderator of the r/jailbait subreddit for the many, many years it was hosted on Reddit.com.
Source? See
Is that true? Holy moly!
Thanks
Your source admits Spez was a jailbait mod. MAYBE he was made one without knowing, but he DEFINITELY could have removed himself and didn’t.
Spez was a jailbait mod for years. That’s a fact.
btw I actually might be helping you attack him better
Instead of a spurious claim he actively managed a pedo sub—
—a more definite claim he permitted a pedo sub to remain on his site? (Assuming he was aware of the sub, which I bet you could find indications of)
a more definite claim he permitted a pedo sub to remain on his site? (Assuming he was aware of the sub, which I bet you could find indications of)
He has repeatedly permitted awful subs (jailbait, altright, the_donald, incels, braincels, etc) to remain on the site far longer than reasonable. Once these subs generated too much negative press they would finally be banned.
Don’t forget about beating women, a subreddit when user shared pictures of women victims of domestic violence to their amusement.
lol I doxxed one of the_donald mods to the FBI after Jan 6th, they used to advertise and gloat about a bunch of their “business” stuff on the site, and registered their LLC to their home address. Clicked on a link they shared, highighted and searched the LLC on Google, clicked on registered address and streetview and there’s a shitty car plastered in Trump stickers in the driveway. Never doxxed them anywhere publicly or did anything bad with their addy until I had a legit purpose for it.
Fucking legend.
It amazes me how plain idiotic people can be a out the information they hand out.
Tldr: fuck executives
I have insomnia and Recently I was rudely awoken at around 2am by a VERY loud jet engine.
Now my county does have an airport, but it’s nowhere near me, and it’s for small aircraft only. There’s a military base that uses a huge section of the state for training, but that’s almost exclusively in the daylight, or for a few hours after it gets dark, and they never get this close.
Well, I pulled up flightradar, and sure enough a small personal jet took offa out 10 minutes ago, and while their flight plan should have had them mucb higher, they were veryclose to the ground. I called the sheriff non emergency line to complain, since it was 2 IN THE FUCKING MORNING and apparently they had already recieved a number of calls from people between me and the airport.
Then I looked up the company that owns the jet. It’s a smallish company that does aero things, and pulls in tons of money every year. Public, private, and military contracting from what I understood, supplying parts or something like that.
Their board of directors is listed on their website along with corporate HQ. Their board of directors also ALL use LinkedIn, with their work addresses, emails, PERSONAL email addresses for quite a few, and one even had some personal mail visible to anyone who stops by their profile picture. Almost all had other social media connected. LinkedIn was also helpful in identifying who was probably flying the jet, too, since he really likes talking about his pilot license.
Social media confirms a few were active within the last hour, and in my state.
With this info, the flight plan, the LinkedIn info, and a little guesswork, I was able to narrow down the occupants of the jet to 5 people, BCCd all their work and personal emails, as well as the general company email, with a 5 paragraph email about proper etiquette when flying over populated areas, as well as FAA laws they were breaking by flying so low, a rather sleep deprived rant about how they’re assholes who think the world should come to a halt for them, letting them know local sheriff department is investigating (lol no the fuck they aren’t who cares if a few people got woken up), and that I am reporting their violations to the FAA. And ended it with a request to follow proper altitude guides or flying at a more reasonable hour.
And around 5am I was finally able to sleep for all of one hour.
When I woke up it dawned on me that I had gotten annoyed by a jet, tracked down the occupants, and sent them an angry personal email, found out their home/work addresses, and could do much more damage if I wanted, all without leaving the comfort of my bed.
I immediately started scrubbing all my online profiles… I still probably talk too much about the area I live in.
Maybe he was made one without him knowing…
He could have removed himself immediately upon noticing…
Source for the fact he noticed?
Ewww I’m defending Spez
As an engineer myself: if I was ceo of my own social media company, I’d periodically go through my account at a fine-grained level and see if there was anything weird going on. Hell, I’d probably use some internal APIs and webhooks or whatever to track and categorize my profile’s interaction with the network at large.
I find it unlikely that he had no idea about this.
Fair point!
I’m pretty sure I remember spez making a special reddit award for the wierdo fuck that created jailbait.
Source?
So either he was a jailbait mod or so bad at his job that he doesn’t understand optics. Or both.
Considering that Spez is the one who controls the mod logs, he could show that he was made a mod instead of invited/accepted and was inactive. I don’t have access to the evidence. Spez does.
Brushing up on the “proven ways Spez sux” file would surely provide more than enough back-pocket fodder to pull out when there’s a chance to drag him :)
I’m a stickler for stuff like this, e.g. someone complains about mythical reasons corporations or governments are against us and I wonder… why risk opponents being able to prove conspiracy theories wrong and distract from legitimately awful/criminal behavior! There’s so much of it!
He literally directly edited comments criticizing him to point to r/The_Donald mods(About 2014-2015-2016, this was news around that time).
Everything from that time period on that related subreddit has been scorched Earth removed from the net. So I’m not sure even Spez has a record of it. Hell. The Anderson Cooper bit about it is even gone.
I doubt law enforcement would allow records from r/jailbait to be scrubbed completely, especially mod logs and mod chats. That’s a source of evidence to build cases against predators, even years later.
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.
I am not complaining. I was there to make fun of Spez and I don’t care if I was rude. If they think Lemmy users are any different than Reddit users they are delusional. There is all types of users here and there.
Nice, keep it up
Hell yeah this is great, especially if it is done in a cheeky way like you are poking the bear a little bit while also genuinely inviting people to try the fediverse out.
lol you fucking legend.
I’m sure their next “Reddit Event” will not have a real time chat.
I bet you are right lol
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
He asked to forgiven him because of the API thing LOL
We need details, please.
I wasn’t paying much attention, I asked a friend for the details and will let you know.
Grande Ademir, melhor admin da melhor comunidade de lemmy.
To everyone else, come to lemmy.eco.br (or to Brazil)!!

Tamo junto, meu considerado! E aquele problema com o docker? Conseguiu superar?
Kkk, acho que me tá confundindo com alguém mais
hahaha desculpa. confundi com o @[email protected]
Po, valeu por me deixar nos seus pensamentos kkkkkkkkk
No fim o problema continua, mas as permissões se ajustaram, então tudo bem :)
hahaha tmj
Eu sei como é passar apuro com essas coisas. Eu sinto a dor do colega :P
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.
i’m of another notion, i think its more about controlling public space for discourse itself than it is about profit… they want to sever access to whatever they might consider subversive dialogue and control the next generation’s access to it.
A lot of things in life are not this heavily conspiratorial…
$3 dollar words make it seem like it’s real complicated. plain greed and middle management stunts
