For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.

Man, I'm grieving a little. Anger, denial, the whole gamut really.

Mostly anger tbh. We all knew it was coming, once they started moving towards an IPO, but I think we hoped that it wouldn't be this bad. The way spez handled it all makes it even worse. Just shitting on all the mods and users that made the IPO possible in the first place.

It would not surprise me if there's something in the news about a bunch of angry ex redditors going project mayhem on him. The whole "do not fuck with us" thing kinda fits here, and there are some crazy people on reddit
