    The man speaking in this clip is Nilay Patel. Hes the Editor in Chief at The Verge.

    He also used to be a lawyer before moving to journalism full time. So he knows Bullshit when he sees it.

    I used to think that The Verge were just a bunch of Apple zealots who couldn’t even do a pc build video properly. They’ve come along way since then. Reddit would be absolutely insane to try and take on something like The Verge.

    Side note , Nilay also has a podcast called Decoder where he interviews the heads of companies to get an idea of how they run and what their goals are. Its a pretty good show and I reccomend it. The one where Nilay takes on the head of Substack was hilarious

        Thanks for the link, that article is delightfully savage. I laughed so hard my cat came over to check if I was dying.

        I found his point about how the content moderation is the product to be insightful, and I haven’t thought about it that way before. I wonder how he feels about Lemmy in that regard.

      You know what, I used to think The Verge was just a bunch of Apple fanboy journalism too. This coverage of Reddit made me realize they know what they’re talking about.
