I mean there are a lot of parallels with Elon and Twitter.

The thing that amazes me about the Reddit tanking - is how sudden it was. For anyone who was paying more attention than I was at the start - how long were there smoke signals for?

I swear it was like 2 Apollo posts within 48hrs straight into blackout shitstorm within the week.

Elon at least hummed and Harred about it for a good while before destroying Twitter week after week and that was fast.

Spez seems to be speed running it.
