Got the infamous nsfw form letter today. Did my usual long winded rant in response, and signed off with a hearty “fuck spez” lol.

I dunno, I’ve been trying to make it a slow retreat, setting things up to be as annoying as possible. But gods damn, the shitty little form letter just got under my skin.

Told the u/modcodeofconduct account that if they were going to take the sub over, to do it and stfu because my ass doesn’t get paid for this, so their orders and threats have no meaning

Still had to offer the person behind the account the usual willing ear if they needed to vent or whatever.

I mean, can you imagine having that job? Having to spam those form letters, catch blasts of shit in return, and all for a boss as deplorable as huffpig? I mean, yeah, you can quit, but the employees didn’t get much more warning about this crap than the 3rd party devs did. Takes time to find new employment. And it isn’t like reddit is HQd somewhere cheap to live, so unless they work remotely from a much lower cost of living place, it’s extra difficult to make that decision.

Anyway, I just needed a vent tbh. It isn’t like this kind of thing is new lol.

    Thanks for all the moderating you did on Reddit. I’ve deleted my account and transferred my moderation to someone else, with a tear in my eye. My baby. But fuck Spez

    Anyhow new chances have arrived, leave Reddit for what it is and enjoy here. I don’t regret coming here.
