I’m shocked. Shocked, I tell you. I’d never imagine that nice Mr. Musk would do that… Oh? He’s been a total ass to workers at his other companies too you say? No, say it isn’t so…

    Yes, my argument is that the people’s preference is wrong, and that this sub has become a Musk news feed instead of being about actual technology, just like what happened on Reddit.

    Besides, net votes alone is a poor metric to base that decision on. Of course the people who want the sub to be garbage are going to defend their position, but you also have to look at more intangible factors like lurkers or people who block the community because of it.

    Going by the popular vote is also how /r/funny became not funny.
