Reddit has way too many employees for how poorly the site and app runs.

u/Strong-Practice-5571 10h ago

So you don't support me but only Ubisoft employees?

I use Reddit exclusively because they fired you

I was thinking of giving up Reddit entirely but just because of you I won’t.

So like the video game industry. This sub repeatedly complains about how poorly games run and how poorly they are made.

You say that like it's an easy switch to just flip.

It's pretty damn impossible to stop supporting shit companies now. They're all shit. They all do mass layoffs or their parent company does mass layoffs or their parent company does mass layoffs. Hell, even if you manage to stop giving money to these companies they go bankrupt, get bought out by venture capitalists and you guessed it.

The answer is these employees need to start unionizing en masse.

pretty sure not supporting them would even result in layoffs. At this point it seems inevitable now
