There’s your answer on how it’s affecting reddit. May be it’s spez just bluffing, but I hope this is a wake up call for the two day blackout subs and they do it indefinitely.
Idk how this is possible either, almost every sub I subscribe to is black, why would that not impact rev?
Well, considering the phone calls with the apollo dev, his trustworthiness is already shot. I would be very surprised if this didn't affect revenue seeing how there's thousands of people not buying awards now. That's not even getting into ad views.
Due to his untrustworthy behavior, I can't say I'd be surprised if he leaked the memo himself, purposely including the deflection of revenue not being impacted or such.
Sounds a bit conspiracy theorist, but I would certainly be unsurprised.
Leaked? Ha! Let's call the memo what it is: a press release. A carefully crafted one full of deflections and to make VCs and future investors happy (no revenue impact!) while also allowing him to play the victim (you're in danger!)
