Summary
Elon Musk privately pressured Reddit CEO Steve Huffman to address content moderation after publicly criticizing Reddit on X for banning links and allegedly hosting violent content.
Shortly after Musk’s messages, Reddit imposed a 72-hour ban on the “WhitePeopleTwitter” subreddit, citing violent content, and deleted a thread Musk highlighted.
Reddit denies external influence but acknowledges evaluating reports seriously.
The controversy stirred discussions among Reddit moderators, some mocking Musk as a “giant baby.” Musk has not commented on the situation.
Flying Squid has disappeared the past month. Very active user. I am worried.
With the previous frequency of comments/posts, and everything else going on, I hope flyingsquid is taking the time to relax.
He recently moved apparently, so probably just busy with life stuff?
Oh that’s good to know. I know there were health issues. That concerned me. He’ll be back later then I’m sure.
He achieved the new american dream of leaving the US. Hopefully he’ll resume posting again once he’s settled.
I’ve had him blocked for a while and it is still plenty active here for me.
I mean. He might just be flying around somewhere.
