    Yeah, they kept sending me emails begging me to invest. Reddit’s IPO is a fucking clown car headed toward a cliff.

      I report them as spam.
      Its nothing i signed up for, and consider it marketing. And there is no unsubscribe link in the email, and its from an unmonitored inbox.
      That makes it spam, and i hope it trashes their mailer IP’s reputation

        Yep, I do the same. I opted out of all 20ish email comm options on that shithole site so it’s just straight up spam.

            When was the last time you got a marketing email from Lemmy?

              https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy

              Lemmy is similar to sites like Reddit

              It’s literally the first sentence of the description of Lemmy. Of course there are differences or no one would be here.

              So to be clear, are you trying to say Lemmy isn’t a reddit clone?

      It’s almost certainly going to do well enough that the VCs and insiders will be able to cash out. The founders will be centi-millionaires. But, people who buy in at the IPO price, I wouldn’t be surprised if they lose a lot of money.

        I’m not investing because fuck you Spez and wallstreetbets is certainly going to have a field day. I can’t wait for popcorn time.

      I hope it makes a funny noise when they hit the ground
