This reminds me of Blackberry

They will slowly fade and become an archive

I work on a corporate team and often companies will allow team members to wear anything to work as long as it’s branded. This, employees have an incentive to spend that money to customize their look at work, if that’s important to them. It is to some people.

My company has a code that brings all items down to cost, and I have bought some uniform items that way to mix up what I wear at work.

The company that I work for is a small business with a great local reputation; wearing my company’s logo is a positive for me. Can’t say that would be the case if I worked for Reddit.

You know you're doing the right thing when you have to instruct your employees not to wear your brand to avoid confrontation.

All I can say is that for every person voicing their opinion and leaving by making a scene, there are many more of us just silently deleting our comments and posts and just disappearing from reddit. Those are the ones reddit should be concerned about.

I hope this response further pisses off the subs who decided to do a fixed time blackout. The user base cannot be taken for granted. Reddit is only good as the content and the creators along with the mods.

I don't think anyone would care about someone wearing reddit gear but who the hell was doing that in the first place?

Here's the source article from The Verge

"In an internal memo sent Monday afternoon to Reddit staff, CEO Steve Huffman addressed the recent blowback directed at the company, telling employees to block out the “noise” and that the ongoing blackout of thousands of subreddits will eventually pass.

The memo, a copy of which was obtained by The Verge, is in response to popular subreddits going dark this week in protest of the company’s increased API pricing for third-party apps. Some of the most popular Reddit clients say the bill for keeping their apps up and running could cost them millions of dollars a year. More than 8,000 Reddit communities have gone dark in protest, and while many plan to open up again on Wednesday, some have said they’ll stay private indefinitely until Reddit makes changes..."

I've joined Mastodon after the twitter "melt down" and I have not gone back. It's quite good and feels like the BBS days of yore.

And I will stay here as well (lemmy) hoping to get the "reddit feel" back again.

He has a point with keep going forward. The reaction of reddit admins is what makes the change easy for me. I can waste my time here.

Assholes, but i guess redditors deserve that much. They are doing the same job as many govs do and ppl are just getting their asses fcked.
