And, like most people dissing Musk on the Internet, he saw Musk cutting back on Twitter staff to save money and somehow understood from it that he needs to drive away unpaid volunteers that generate money, instead of, ya know, cutting back on actual employees, of which Reddit apparently has way more than it should.

Yes, nothing like getting rid of high value employees that work for free.
