WE HAD A GOOD THING YOU STUPID SON OF A BITCH!

We had 3PA's, we had all the free labor in the world, just from passionate people who wanted to share the things they love, we had bots to fight spam, and extremely talented developers who made your stupid website work on mobile. It all ran like clockwork, if you could have just shut your mouth we'd all be fine right now.

But no, you just had to blow it up. YOU, AND YOUR GREED AND YOUR EGO.

Same. It's been truly heartbreaking watching spez destroy it like this. I think this catharsis was needed and overdue, but it came on so suddenly. I hope in 15 yrs we will look back and thank spez for handling this so terribly as it was the catalyst needed for something new to crystalize.

The Web needs to return to the standard of function and resource consumption it had in 2013 or earlier.
