“fuck u/spez” means absolutely nothing to anyone who isn’t familiar with Reddit, it’s just noise.
“FIRE STEVE HUFFMAN” is a clear, actionable statement that has a clear target and goal and actually has meaning to people who don’t know what Reddit is (like say, a potential shareholder or investor)
Idk where to put this since r/savethirdpartyapps got banned so post this wherever will get noise if you agree
Who the hell is gonna fire him, though? That’s like clamoring for Mark Zuckerberg to be fired. It’s probably impossible to.
He already cashed out so I suspect his CEO position is more of a “he knows what he’s doing so we’ll hire him” than a “I own all of this, so I’m CEO”. Unless they were dumb enough to give him a controlling portion of shares as compensation.
That said, they have no reason to listen to people posting on the internet about it. If he gets fired, it’ll be over his results not some internet whining. Those who have the influence to get that done know that Hoffman is spez.
The only thing that doing this might accomplish is making it harder for him and others who happen to share his name to get hired in the future. But even that is iffy IMO.
