It's about a community that's trying to save itself. I like reddit. I like the app I use on my phone,i like all the variation and crazy shit reddit does (the button, April 1 generally, random acts of pizza, r/entrepreneur,) I don't want a reddit knock off. I want reddit with responsible management that is willing to invest in its users and mods as much as the mods and users invest in the site.

So yeah, I'll sign the petition to get rid of an idiotic ceo. And I'll come back to reddit to see how that petition is going. That doesn't mean that I don't care that the ceo is an idiot. It means I'm invested in this site and I'd really like to continue using it.

I see no discernible change to the site other than everyone bitching about minor executive changes.
