That's exactly how I feel about it as well. It's not just that these guys are cartoonishly evil, they are also cartoonishly incompetent.
I have a feeling most of corporate is run by Wily E Coyote.

In all corporations.
I feel it's just that the investor class is controlled by a few dozen people who incentivize and force these behaviour patterns.
I think it’s heirarchy in general. Decisions being made by the “Money people” without the people with other expertise having equal say. Ideally the money people, the engineers, the customer support, etc would all have equal say in decisions. I’m a big fan of coops.
It kinda is in the name with "capitalism".
so will Reddit
This doesn't surprise me, during the whole process they didn't even try to pretend that they were listening.
The thing that really gets me is how poorly they communicated: slandering the Apollo dev, ignoring mod's concerns, lying, not giving enough notice, and having the audacity to hold an "AMA" but answer basically none of the questions.
Like if you're going to go through with this change at the bear minimum you could be professional about it. But they way they did it was very arrogant and impatient.
Looking at the Blackout Tracker it seems a few subs have folded early - r/adviceanimals and r/travel being the largest. Also the news subs and random ones like r/movies or r/photoshopbattles never joined in - were they not on board of their own choice, or controlled from on high?
Wow the goddamn arrogance
