Has there been any indication that reddit may pay creators and moderators, like youtube and meta and other platforms do? or are they just expecting to pocket all the cash?

The disdain for the working class in general and volunteer mods specifically from spez is palpable, unless he get‘s replaced there is no way they get paid.

I‘m surprised he is even paying US employees, when it would be so much cheaper to fire them and replace with unpaid interns or ChatGPT or outsource it all. When one has the same lack of ethics as Musk, a lot of cost saving avenues open up.

Who is he? Is he an original? Why is he still even in the job?

I believe he is a co-creator

I guess he has some kind of mandate to drive it into a grave if he so chooses then.

I wonder if Advance Publications is still the majority owner. If so, the Newhouse family elders that run that company are near or over 70-80 years old. I can almost guarantee they are still using flip cellphones or even Jitterbugs.
