• The Reddit moderators who coordinate many celebrity AMAs will no longer do so

  They are referring to digg who set up most AMA. Source: 10 months ago

• Reddit CEO Steve Huffman is fighting a losing battle against the site's moderators

  Or is it a success because Reddit Inc has shown its hand of not giving a shit about your average user and this site will bleed users as they, especially power users who actually post and moderate and build the communities in the first place flee to places where their countless hours of unpaid labor are appreciated (like lemmy, kbin, mastodon), and good old reddit becomes a ghost town like digg which is apparently...

• What did the Reddit blackouts actually accomplish?

  It's the great unraveling. Communities are torn asunder. It's could very well be the first step of Reddits fall. Or reddit will just look and feel very different afterwards. A husk of an aggregator. Go to digg.com right now to see what reddit might be. Source: 11 months ago

• What's Your Take on Reddit's Plan to Sell Your Posts and Comments as "Data Licensing" to Other Companies to Train AI Language Models?

  Reddit owes much of its success to the digg.com exodus, it would be fitting for its demise to be caused by a similar exodus. Source: 11 months ago

• Donald Trump’s Indictment Helps Boost MSNBC To Primetime Weekly Ratings Win Over Fox News

  I can only imagine their disappointment when buzzfeed.com still pops up with their quizzes and "news" about the Kardashians. Source: about 1 year ago

• Get it Together!!

  From what buzzfeed.com? Is that what the quiz told you? Source: about 1 year ago

• BuzzFeed, after gutting its newsroom, asks reporters to produce even more — Meanwhile, the company's stock is struggling, revenue is in free fall, and editorial ambitions remain hazy

  The terrible part is they completely poisoned the name "buzzfeed" because buzzfeednews.com (not buzzfeed.com) does some amazing journalism. Among other stories they are the ones who received the leaked "FinCen Files" which showed that FinCen (the US govt agency in charge of monitoring suspicious financial transactions) was basically not doing anything and money laundering was freely happening under their watch and...

• Algeria, and the relationship between lead and iq

  You're focusing on the wrong side effect of lead, studies have shown that exposure to lead in the air increases violence and crimes, and the effect can last up to 20 years. I'm more concerned about that than some arbitrary whimsical IQ test on buzzfeed.com. Source: about 1 year ago

• Buzzfeed shouldn’t be suggested as a news site

  If I type in "nytimes.com" right now, I get news stories and midterm analysis first. If I type in "buzzfeed.com" the main story is "I Apologize In Advance, But Non-Americans Think These 18 American Foods Are Absolutely 'Disgusting”. You have to click on the logo and find your way over to Buzzfeed news, which to me at least, would suggest their news section is of secondary importance and isn't the main component of...
