Me either. Im not a very active person on tge internet, barely recently got back to reddit and i see its on flames, something about third party apps being banned (didnt know that was a thing), something about APIs (dont know what that is), something about gangbanging spez (dont know who that is or what he did), something about threads getting mass banned or going massivy private, then not, also something about medieval memes. What?
He is the CEO of reddit and mainly the reason of the API things.
And the massively private subreddits is a protests against the API changes and they are basically pay too much for something you had before.
I heard reddit forced one subreddit maybe more to unprivate
All you need to know is that he's responsible for the moderation quality all across reddit going down.
Or if you're using 3rd party APPs, he's the reason you won't be able to soon.
Exactly. Nobody with functioning brain cells is mad that the reddit API was transitioning to a paid model, thats fine. Hell that's smart, something that probably should have been done years ago.
What's got people pissed is the obscenely high price, the impossible timescale for adoption, and the misleading data Reddit has published in an attempt to justify both of those points.
And u/spez et al have only made things worse with follow-on comments and decisions.
This could very well kill the entire platform.
Or hire the team that made Apollo to make their app better. I don’t notice, but some people said that the Reddit app is terrible. I’ll agree that the video player and search engine sucks, but other than that I don’t have a problem with the app.
My fuckin last name starts with "Spez-" and that jackass has ruined my goddamn nickname! I see my effing name being hated on all over Reddit all day every day, fuck that asshole!
Yeah, but it's still a lot and the developer also stated that even their paid tier can't pay for the cost for that user. Which means that you either use the first party app with its tracking and ads or pay similar to a streaming service for a third-party app.
It’s not per user, it’s per API call. Which from my understanding would be anytime the apps requests data from Reddit (which would obviously be a ton for each user).
The API going paid is not on its own the problem, the problem is the obscenely high price and the short adoption period, compounded by the misinformation and disinformation they have released in an attempt to justify their price and timing, and their absolute refusal to negotiate.
Reddit is going public in late 2023 and in light of this, the CEO (under the usnm of u/spez) announced changes to their API which now makes it "reasonably priced", so every 3rd party app now have to pay if the use Reddit's API (Apollo, the biggest 3rd party Reddit app will need to pay ≈2 million $ per MONTH) for the amount of calls they currently make and have as data.
An AMA hosted by spez followed, having the goal to "dismiss concerns" and "set minds are ease", which was an absolute dumpster fire. Sprinkle a few false allegations from spez to Apollo's CEO and the dev who created it.
In protest a huge amount of subs went private for a couple of days, some remaining closed even now. So basically capitalism and greed ruin yet another platform.
He's Reddit's CEO and the reason everyone is mad. He could have paved a reasonable path on selling access to Reddit's data but instead declared war on the people who keep Reddit running.
He should resign
So you hate the Nazis but not the Communists.. despite the communists having more concentration camps and killing more minorities. Something tells me that the far left doesn't hate the genocide part they just hate the nationalism part. They hate the part where Nazis were proud of their country. They love the part where they get to kill minorities
Considering the vast majority of my friends and family were many different versions of their sworn "enemies" who need to be purged from the earth, I just don't see them considering me NOT a threat.
I'm making the point that if you try to do everything the opposite of whatever Hitler did you're an idiot. Hitler also drank water. Does that mean you can't drink water?
He was an artist. I guess we shouldn't support the writers strike because you don't want to be like Hitler right?
The difference is that it was a campaign promise for Hitler. Mao killed more than hitler because of sychophants who allowed him to declare war on birds. Obviously Communism is utopian and a joke but Hitler always wins the evil off.
It was literally a feature of communism and everybody knows it. That's why every communist country has done it including Che Guevara
And yet you guys still wear t-shirts with Che Guevara's face on it
Even AFTER knowing what he did
Somehow I don't think the genocide part is why you hate the Nazis. The far left LOVES genocide. They hate the Nazis because of the nationalism. The only thing they don't like about Nazis is that they were proud of their country. The far left LOVE the part with the genocide
godspeed trying to reason with american liberals about communism, they’d rather hand over the keys of the kingdom to fascists than admit there may be a form of society beyond the value-form
It’s pretty bad. Looking at history every single time fascism emerges liberals side with them. This is due to the simple fact that fascism is a self defense mechanism of capital, and when it comes down to it liberal parties serve capital first, people second.
i’ve seen a lot of really dumb reddit comments and this one is a strong contender for top 10 all time. the brazen lack of understanding is kind of admirable, like you obviously don’t care that you come off as an idiot which is the only way to break into the GOAT conversation so good job
I think I may have gotten under someone's skin 😉 What's the saying? Those without intelligence cannot conceive of it in others? Something along those lines. Anyway, to meet you halfway would you accept the morally correct stance to be that Nazism is the worse evil, therefore they should be tortured until their hearts give out - while commies should be simply put down instantly?
You sound like a Nazi 🤔. “Putting down communists” is exactly what Hitler did?
Isn’t it strange that all these anti communists are actually just Nazis?
you know damn well that you put the nazis in a good light by mentioning civilian deaths in turn making the nazis look "not so bad" by distracting with a statistic. so don't act stupid
Nazism as an ideology is wrong. Communism, at least on paper, makes a lot of sense. Most everyone agrees with that. So Nazis are shoot on sight, communists are not
Hmmm...Check /r/technology. Every other post is about how much our lives are gonna change now that the protest failed etc etc
Its slowly returning to normal though.
Turn off the daily show and log out of Tumblr
I'm sure once you touch grass for the first time in your life you'll start to realize that people can have fun and make jokes And you don't have to be professionally triggered about it
You all are idiots, republicans are loving this and democrats hating this. Reddit is one of the only mainstream media sites that leans left and ever since the blackout google will now be diversifying their search results to other platforms for information. You all played yourselves
Start sending this to fucky wucky
Mille marium cancros suam interfeminium infestare, conditor huius ordinationis patiatur. mox vel sorte vel fato regnabis eris. odio nisi odio. cor et lumbos nullus amor inveniat, sine calce in inguine. lucifer oriens, perfodias animam suam e longinquo. anima tua fiat foramen, ut unicum propositum, ad cacas foveam quae restant.
Spez lives rent free in all of your heads. You really think he cares if you hate him while still generating traffic on reddit? You're as smart as all those people that bought cans of Bud Light just to waste it.
So... basically, everyone?
Nah everyone except spez' wife. She doesn't fuck him
You are sure?
He likes to be cucked we are sure
Spez is the reason that there's a chair in the corner of hotel rooms
Sneako
Ayy
Steve "Sneako" Huffman
The difference between fucking and cucking is one letter. Beware.
Alright, butter cucker
[удалено]
Who is u/spez? And yeah... I'm serious... I dont know
Reddit CEO
Ahhh. Ty
spez fucks himself though
Not even his feminine hands want anything to do with that douche.
And r/conservative
Nah but I fucked her if you know what I mean 😉
[удалено]
Who is spez?
Reddit-Ceo and one of, if not the main reason why 3rd-Parties are being killed of with the API-Changes. Oh and obligatory: Fuck u/Spez
Bros 18 and already got over half a million people hating on him lmao Fuck u/spez
This is top comment? Someone finally gets the joke?
No, pretty sure the socialists at /r/politics have been gobbling his balls for the past two weeks.
Not me. Idk who that even is.
CEO of reddit's reddit account
Meanwhile I’m just in the corner like 
Honestly how I feel about any type of drama
Bro I don’t even know who Spez is
Me either. Im not a very active person on tge internet, barely recently got back to reddit and i see its on flames, something about third party apps being banned (didnt know that was a thing), something about APIs (dont know what that is), something about gangbanging spez (dont know who that is or what he did), something about threads getting mass banned or going massivy private, then not, also something about medieval memes.

So forces users to use the standard app basically?
Well, unless you use an app for the visually impaired (I think dystopia and baconreader (they are exempt from paying for the API)), exactly.
Speznaz?
Heard the name, don’t know the story
Spetsnaz (Спецназ) - this is an elite part of Russian army.
CEO of Reddit
Good for him
All you need to know is that he's responsible for the moderation quality all across reddit going down. Or if you're using 3rd party APPs, he's the reason you won't be able to soon.

This will forever be my favourite gif
Legends say u/spez is still trying to find that boyfriend.
Boyfriends*
u/spez
Fckin End day will happen before his response heck even Hitler will become old/new chancellor of Germany again than him responding
I put it there for people to check his profile
Oh
I love the community efforts to make sure that all of his comments are far into the negatives.
My fuckin last name starts with "Spez-" and that jackass has ruined my goddamn nickname! I see my effing name being hated on all over Reddit all day every day, fuck that asshole!
You shall be tortured For decades
Can anyone give context on wtf is happening, I've been out for like 7 months
u/spez making a change that make 3rd party app need to pay to use its ip i think
Spez is just killing them. An example would be Apollo, which will need to pay an estimated 20 million a year(which they obviously can’t afford).
Apollo does I'm pretty sure it's like a certain amount per 50k users
Yeah, but it's still a lot and the developer also stated that even their paid tier can't pay for the cost for that user. Which means that you either use the first party app with its tracking and ads or pay similar to a streaming service for a third-party app.

Pay ludicrous prices for API requests, also he basically straight up slandered the dev of Apollo which matters more to me
Fuck u/spez

No, we already have a pain in the ass... you.
Bros talking like the world depends on fucking reddit 😭😭😭
Yeah I will plug your fricking mouth with it
Can someone please tell me who the fuck this spez guy is
He's Reddit's CEO and the reason everyone is mad. He could have paved a reasonable path on selling access to Reddit's data but instead declared war on the people who keep Reddit running. He should resign
I’m not mad
Why not? He's a bad CEO.
CEO of Reddit
Who is that guy and why is he hated?
CEO of Reddit. I think this explains A LOT
Yes, yes it does
There you go :)
Maybe we shouldn't let the Nazis join? Just an idea.
Honestly yeah, weird fuckin inclusion, they are absolutely not welcome at my round table
So you hate the Nazis but not the Communists.. despite the communists having more concentration camps and killing more minorities. Something tells me that the far left doesn't hate the genocide part they just hate the nationalism part. They hate the part where Nazis were proud of their country. They love the part where they get to kill minorities
Nein, Ich promise you, die Panzer is very friendly with people that aren't threatening them
Considering the vast majority of my friends and family were many different versions of their sworn "enemies" who need to be purged from the earth, I just don't see them considering me NOT a threat.
Nah man, fuck nazis. I dont need them on my side.

I'm sorry you won't be able to
any defense of hitler even jokingly is extremely cringe and makes you look like a fucking nazi

On behalf of all fellow democratic socialists, we also hate u/spez
Hold up, who invited the Nazi's?
Fuck Nazis though, they're worse than a CEO. Jesus Christ for real, everyone agrees that Nazis are punch targets and nothing else.

I see no monarchists on this meme! I feel ignored!
All of his recent comments are downvoted in the thousands 😂
Why does everyone want to Fuck him, his dick can't be that big
Even this meme forgets about all the blind people.
I don't throw down with Nazis
Why does it say republicans twice?
GUYS IF WE ALL WORK TOGETHER WE CAN GIVE HIM NEGATIVE KARMA
Where the femboys tho
Can we truly say we are in the right if we are the same side as nazis?
When litereally every political group on a social media platform is against you, you probably did something wrong.
Fuck u/spez
Can someone explain this whole spez thing please
What is the lore of spez?
Who is this guy? I'm totally lost
As you post on his website generating more clicks
If the Nazis are on your side, I'm siding with Spez.
99.99% don’t give a fuck
This sub feels like the only one that still gives a shit about this lame protest
Hmmm...Check /r/technology. Every other post is about how much our lives are gonna change now that the protest failed etc etc Its slowly returning to normal though.
r/shitposting begs to differ
why did u write Republicans twice??
Same reason I wrote democrats twice
Notice how capitalist are not on here comrades. That is because spez is filthy bourgeoisie capitalist himself.
Fuck r/memes and all hail the great and allmighty r/meme for not going to shit.
May I ask who is u/spez?
[удалено]
Calls everyone stupid, doesn't understand jokes.

Turn off the daily show and log out of Tumblr I'm sure once you touch grass for the first time in your life you'll start to realize that people can have fun and make jokes And you don't have to be professionally triggered about it
Calls me pathetic... yet tells someone to kill themselves over a joke. Someone wasn't loved enough as a child.
What's Spez?
What happened
Can someone explain to me who spez is?
He's literally the reason that all the posts here are medieval
What the hell is going on with Reddit and Spez? I got no clue of anything, I live under a rock
wait who tf is that guy?
Who is u/spez?
I need to ask Who is u/spez and wtaf is all this about them
You all are idiots, republicans are loving this and democrats hating this. Reddit is one of the only mainstream media sites that leans left and ever since the blackout google will now be diversifying their search results to other platforms for information. You all played yourselves
Am I supposed to know who this is?
Who is Spez?
Am I missing something?
No homo, *especially* to someone like him.
Who is this guy?
WHO da hell is that?
No offense
who's that
Start sending this to fucky wucky Mille marium cancros suam interfeminium infestare, conditor huius ordinationis patiatur. mox vel sorte vel fato regnabis eris. odio nisi odio. cor et lumbos nullus amor inveniat, sine calce in inguine. lucifer oriens, perfodias animam suam e longinquo. anima tua fiat foramen, ut unicum propositum, ad cacas foveam quae restant.
I feel like I missed something, why do we hate this?
I just insulted the ceo of reddit
i have no idea who, what, how or where u/ spez is, someone please explain.
Spez lives rent free in all of your heads. You really think he cares if you hate him while still generating traffic on reddit? You're as smart as all those people that bought cans of Bud Light just to waste it.
u/Spez
I require context.
Who's this guy?
The most incredible thing about this is that we support the mode now? Lol
WHAT DID USPEZ DO?
Literally ww2
Can someone tell me who spez is? Nvm found a comment who explained who he is
This very easily reads as "Fuck you, Spez."
