Good article highlighting the fact that the entire business is predicated on the moderators supplying free labor.

Good to see an article that includes the point that it’s the timelines that make it completely infeasible. A lot of other articles make it come across that the whole huff is just because people only want free shit.

This is the ebb and flow of social media platforms. u/Spez is counting on Reddit being resilient like Facebook: even though it's a shadow of what it was, it still has users and makes a profit (it seems). Facebook, though, is often for keeping in touch with friends and family--Reddit is mostly for posting with internet strangers, which can be found in a lot of other spaces

It's nicely written, and unbiased, I just wish the headline was true.

Anywhere is the right place for tasty, delicious schadenfreude involving Musk-pilled Huffman...

The title is meant to draw attention from Redditors - it is not exactly true. It may be informative but the title is pure clickbait
