Yeah, this seems very unlikely to go anywhere other than in gaining media attention (which is a fair aim to have at this point).
I don’t think the point to to actually get paid. I think the idea is, as you said, media attention, as well as investor attention. Who’s going to want to invest in a company that’s trying to unionize?
I thought unionize meant un-ion-izing things, like ions from molecules and metals.
did you really?
maybe they should start a lemmy community to talk about it… like !workreform@lemmy.world
Out of principle I support this, but I very much doubt it will ever succeed.
I don’t think they actually think they’ll get backpaid, it’s more the principle of the thing. You’re saying Reddit isn’t earning the money it should, how about all the free work mods have done over the years to make Reddit into anything worth monetising?

I have mixed feelings about this. I’d fire many of the bullies.
If trump can run and win on sowing chaos, why not use that tactic and see how far it can go. I say go for it.
This probably won’t get very far but no harm trying and if it actually does work there is a ton to be gained
Being that the message that Spez was trying to give off at times was that developers weren’t paying their fair share, I think this gives the a great example of how Reddit essentially doesn’t pay their fair share. They aren’t creating the content, and they aren’t paying the mods to “manage” the content.
