Keep him away from anything to do with teenage girls, for one thing.

(He was a mod on /r/jailbait, in case you don't get the reference)

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

If he's not already here under a different username.

I wouldn't do anything. Let him be, because I don't slander people I don't like or disagree with, I forgive but I don't forget. I'd rather not fall to his level.

Tell him to look at my username

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Might wanna change that - he just might like it.

God i hope not. A win in our case should be a loss in /u/spez's case

That would require he make a comment in that community first. Currently tle only way to add and remove mods

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

What would you do?

I dont see how him joining lemmy should affect anything I do.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

He seems so obsessed with how people receive him that he's probably already here somewhere to keep tabs on it. At the very least I like to imagine him paying some assistant to do such for him.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Nothing, good for him. Nobody can own the fediverse so he can't do damage.

Big tech will launch platforms trying to do exactly that if it becomes popular enough.

They won't own it but it will be like Google search, pretty much a default for the majority of zombies who don't care that it's big tech behind it.

Put a Instagram login on it and one click invite to all Instagram and WhatsApp users and you suddenly have millions of active users.

Then you continue to monitor what's being discussed, train some AI on the data that people are providing for you free of charge, and then sell the AI service back to people for a fixed price per month.

Nothing in particular. Why?

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Nothing. I don't care.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

He probably already did.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

He probably has. I would join every competitor and alternative I could find. When I was a Buyer for a chain of bike shops I made sure I shopped at every bike shop in the area. Anything less is extremely stupid. Based on his recent history, he's probably not here, but he should be.

He hadn't even used Reddit for almost a year before the recent AMA. I'm not worried.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

If he was smart, he should have one. It's important for a CEO to understand his competition.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

If he was smart

Well, there's the problem right there.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I don't care, but if he creates an instance, I'll immediately ask my Pirate Captain to defederate them, and also message owners of major instances and ask them to defederate the spez instance.

"You have no power here" ๐Ÿ˜‰

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I'd get everyone to join me in Lemmy's very first "Kung Pow Penis." I know that's a Tumblr thing but I think it has potential over here.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Idunno, probably call him a big ol' poopy face and send him a picture of a toilet or something.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I'd just block his dumbass. He has no power here.

Beehaw didn't do anything to deserve that! Heck,I wouldn't inflict Spez on my worst enemy.

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago

He is more of a 'keep your nose up and your subordinates under your feet' type of person (seems like it anyways), so he will not come here. Unless it is a PR stunt, then he'll get laughed back to reddit.

If the sun blew up what would you do?

How Can We Watch The Sun Blow Up If Our Eyes Aren't Even Real??
