She was an obvious scapegoat.

[–]gonzobon[S] 33ポイント34ポイント  (10子コメント)

watch none of the changes she invoked revert back.

[–]jagershotzz [スコア非表示]  (6子コメント)

Managment has not made one mention of restoring the site to its original condition.

[–]SedditRucks [スコア非表示]  (5子コメント)

That's because it won't be restored.

From Altman's statement,

Steve’s great challenge as CEO will be continuing the work Ellen started to drive this forward.

[–]MarlboroMundo [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

Hire already unpopular person as CEO.

Make unpopular changes to Reddit.

Laugh while community goes in uproar over new CEO.

Have CEO step down, remaining on the board until the end of the year.

Give community a popular CEO to continue working on said unpopular changes.

This seems like an awful pessimistic way to look at this situation but it may have gone down like this. As for the new management, only time will tell to see what they have in store.

It's simple really,

Problem > Reaction > Solution

[–]itrv1 [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

Looks like we need to drag another one out and do the exact same thing as this time.

Good luck getting people to care once they realize hating a single person doesn't change the system and that person's name no longer humorously rhymes with Mao.

[–]hotrodfantasy [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Well...shit.

I guess out with the old dictator and in with the new one.

[–]dolaction [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

All I want is fatpeoplehate back. It really helped my girlfriend's self esteem to know she wasn't as out of shape as some whales that showed up on there.

[–]darth_elevator [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

All I want is to see how many upvotes and downvotes each post specifically has.

[–]Corben11 [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

It helped remind me why I have to work out and watch what I eat. and /r/Keto made it so easy and awesome

Jesus fucking christ.

Some people are just never satisfied.

"Make Pao resign!"

"Ok, done."

"Fuck you, man! Pao was a scapegoat!"

[–]rico_of_borg [スコア非表示]  (4子コメント)

or perhaps, just maybe, he is a different person? let's be real here pao's resignation means nothing.

[–]Throwaway4Censorship [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

No, let's be real here: Pao's resignation means that the staff and administration of reddit has been listening to people's complaints and demands that she step down.

Don't pretend 'that means nothing'.

[–]rico_of_borg [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

it means you won't be hearing of her anymore and it's an attempt to save face by the company to keep it's user base. that's all. corporate reddit is still in affect.

[–]Corben11 [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

That's just being cynical, its been like an hour. At least give it a week before shouting bullshit.

[–]RazsterOxzine [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Atop the Pyramid of power, they're still sitting pretty.

[–]FedoraTip9000 [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

many people were already saying this before she resigned.

[–]colordrops [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Did /u/Shortychete say she should resign? Or are you suggesting that there no individual humans, and we are really all one hive mind, and can attribute anything ever said to anyone else?

[–]dsfkjsd [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Someone should make a change.org petition to bring her back. I know 4chan and voat would be all over it. I like watching things burn.

[–]Grzechooo [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

I'll take "things I didn't think would happen" for 20$

[–]mrpeppr1 [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Ya thought she was definitely going to shove some more shit down our throats before leaving. All that really changed was harassment rules, AMA etiquette and speculated testing of a censoring algorithm. Could have been a lot worse.

[–]SnippDK [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

So what if she is stepping down. Reddit is still not gonna change back to what it used to be. Ellen came, made the changes the investors wanted, stepped down and now all the idiots are gonna praise Steve, and forget about the changes. Meanwhile some of us, just think "Ehmm yeah so what?". Original reddit is already gone.

[–]fxtaken [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

If the reddit community cannot learn to balance authenticity and compassion, it may be a great website but it will never be a truly great community. Steve’s great challenge as CEO [2] will be continuing the work Ellen started to drive this forward.

LOL, round 2 begins.

[–]HiveNode [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

So... when are all of the changes she made going to be reverted back to normal? I mean, what she did to the site was obviously not supported by the vast majority of the userbase.

[–]I-HATE-FUPAS [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

One way or another.

[–]xdyev [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

From Bloomberg:

Pao also called the decision mutual.

“We had different views in the potential growth rate in users for Reddit this year,” she said in an interview. “We couldn’t come to an agreement on that and I decided to step down.”

WTF?

Wow, and just after that heartfelt apology? Color me shocked.

[–]XHF1 [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

RIP Voat

[–]burbod01 3ポイント4ポイント  (1子コメント)

Let's be honest, she was a bad CEO but the corporation and it's users fundamentally want different things, and always will, because money drives them and not us.

[–]joe-6pak [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

I can't imagine why anyone would want to be CEO of reddit.

[–]offthewall_77 [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

Didn't we call this a couple weeks ago?

[–]gonzobon[S] [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

Yep. Hopefully Steve doesn't fuck it up.

[–]IntellisaurDinoAlien [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Unless Steve has bought out the people behind Pao's actions I very much doubt it.

[–]ENYAY7 [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Reddit is still shit.

[–]Novyac [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these: /r/conspiracy was right again.

[–]flyingwolf [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Thank you, just last week this was predicted, along with numerous folks stating that they have not only seen this exact same thing, but that this is in fact simply how a large corporation works, new person steps in, makes giant changes the workers hate, new person is "fired" or resigns with a nice big golden parachute, some items may revert but most will stay and the workers rejoice that the new person is gone and the old beloved person is back.

It honestly could not be more scripted.

[–]The_Silmarillion [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

Let's honstly see where this leads I had nothing against Pao, persay, but she was emblematic to many (myself included) as one of the driving forces behind the monotinization of the place I've been coming daily since 2009 (been through a few accounts). Her stepping down doesn't change the underlying fact that I can't stand what the site is slowly turning into. The influx of users over the past few years has changed what made reddit great in the first place, and the administration had to change to cope with that. All she did, if anything, from my extremely limited and stupid perspective, is push for a way to monetize the inevitable. We all somehow had to have known the site as a whole would be neutered the more popular it got.

If we don't like it we can leave. I know I may.

[–]magictron [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

I can't put my finger on it, but the content on the site doesn't interest me like it used to. The quality of front-page submissions has definitely changed, as if the site was dumbed-down.

[–]IntellisaurDinoAlien [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Not a stupid perspective at all.

[–]realshitshow [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Good. Now bring Victoria back.
