I've heard Reddit is setting themselves up for another major fumble and that it relates to how much Spez is a fanboy of Elon Musk.

I can't find any details on the drama playing out though. Can someone explain the details of what's going on?

I would love to see Lemmy grow with another big "Rexxit" event, but I'm not seeing anything happening to cause one.

Tell that to USAID or all the other orgs he is gutting.

Okay, you're just trolling at this point if you think reddit is a government agency somehow. Not even gonna bother further with you. Blocked.

Just in the interest of anyone who thinks this person had even the slightest argument:

To summarize. musk is not the de jure "fed". he is very demonstrably de facto. But hey, apparently reddit loves everyone enough that they are going to fight a federal government that has made it clear they don't give a shit about any actual laws or constitutionality.

Considering the humiliating displays of fealty from meta (overtly manipulating search and firing factcheckers) and tik tok (grovelling public announcement) it's not hard to imagine there's some serious threats against any site operator that doesn't bend the knee.
