Not for himself, as he just joined the billionaire club. I would probably have ruined it for a billion as well, if I’m being completely honest.

I don’t think I would. If it were a zero-sum game where I either have good reddit and no money, or modern reddit and a billion dollars, I’d probably take the money. But its not like spez was a broke man barely surviving paycheck to paycheck before he ruined it. I just don’t understand the greed rich people have to constantly take more for themselves when they’re already doing great.

because the thing they strive for is getting more. it’s about status. they only give it away if it somehow nets them more wealth.

Enablers get payouts too, though.

They’re not competing with you or me in the conspicuous consumption game. They’re competing with all the other rich people.

It’s a problem inherent to centralized online platforms.
