Don't just blame Spez...that what the board wants you to strawman.

Blame the board as well

Who I blame doesn't matter. I just stopped using it. Spez doesn't care that I'm gone. Neither does the board. I don't like current reddit. But I'm under no illusion that they will to clamor to keep the users that want vpns and anonymous viewing.

A large group of data providers using the site is better for them than a huge group of content sharers.

In hindsight, Pao wasn't so bad after all.

Conspiracy theory: I think the whole Pao thing was a power play to make spez more powerful and played the userbase like a fiddle by doubling down on reddit's built in misogyny and anti-authority/corporate bent at the time.
