That’s not how this meme works, but I get what you’re throwing down.
Did TenCent really buy shares?
Not recently, it was in 2019. https://www.thestreet.com/technology/tencent-invests-150-million-in-reddit-14863248
Thank you for taking the time to share the article ❤️
According to reddit’s wikipedia page, Tencent owns about 5% of reddit.
Even if its 5%, is a lot
That’s 5% too much.
Enough that anti-ccp posts seemed to be less frequent. Who knows what vote fuzzing was going on.
I just know that the same users who were dismissing my concerns are happily consuming their meme on nureddit.
Shares in private businesses are private business, even when said shares have discounts that are only available under certain conditions. It’s all a out what they initially declare, and the assumption is that they’re honest.
You didn’t think the plebs could get <20% interest rates, did you?
Yea, around 5 yrs ago.
Everything they touch becomes a money grab. Unpopular opinion but I enjoy mobile gaming and when I see TenCent I become extremely cynical.
Ah yeah. I forgot about that.
Thanks to this I got to join Lemmy, so I’m thankful for the extremely poor management of Reddit ❤️
I read posts from people saying “deleted my X year old account today”.
Like, am I the only one who had multiple accounts? lmfao
They can’t be bots, right? Good.
