They’re getting voted into oblivion on the AMA, but u/ChariotWheel is helpfully cut-and-pasting and formatting them here.

He may not get the most downvoted comment in reddit history. But Spez is likely to end up with the most brutal AMA in history…
“Thank you for all the years of hardwork single handedly creating the greatest platform and gracing us with your presence here today. With regards to the api changes and third party apps, I was just wondering if you had started the process of going and fucking yourself? you greedy little pigboy.” -u/OoooThatsTheSpot
Did he answer that? 🤣
I wish! He hasn’t answered anything but softball questions I can only assume were posted by his mom and secretary.
Which were initially prefixed with
A:, as if he copy-pasted premade answers from a spreadsheet or a word document 🤣https://archive.ph/X6EJq
Oh my god, that’s rich!
Honestly, I don’t see this issue with that - having preprepared answers to make sure they’re accurate (though that doesn’t appear to have been the reason in this case…) etc is a reasonable thing for an AMA like that
I think the substance (or often honestly lack thereof) of those responses is much more the problem, together with not actually addressing most of the questions that were responded to properly (and I’m honestly just confused by the decision process by Reddit’s leadership in general tbh as it was rather foreseeable not to end well. Kinda wish Reddit will die from this hoping a lot of the communities I care about migrate to something like Lemmy instead; but I’m not holding my breath)
If you have pre-answered questions then it’s not an AMA, it’s an announcement or a press release. An AMA requires the communication to go both ways, and he didn’t answer anything he was unprepared for
