Poked my head in to the AMA and it's basically what I expected. To the surprise of no-one Spez is a tool and should go boil his ass.

The answers were infuriating beyond all reason. Like dude... If you're trying to avoid being used for training llms, that's totally reasonable. Nuking all 3P apps is an insane response, fuck off.

I spent years on Reddit and somehow didn't realize until today what an unscrupulous person he is. And not only unscrupulous, but downright unprofessional.

We can say what we want about someone like Mark Zuckerberg, but he would never behave in the way that Spez did in that AMA. It's just not befitting of the CEO of a company.

He also had a bit of controversy several years back when it came out that he was stealth-editing other people's comments.
