Here's an imgur mirror link just in case the tweets get deleted.

Good.


But still not enough.

 

[touchfuzzy]

I see two of them already look homeless as a result, going off profile pictures

 

[Krappadizzle]

 

[Godot25]

And nothing of value was lost...

"I fear that management has no appreciation or understanding of how vital great editing is to great writing"

None of the latter existed to begin with

 

[Insane Metal]

"Supremely skilled editor" at Kotaku?

[Adam_802]

Nothing of value lost.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

No need to wear your heart on your sleeves media employees.

Just do what everyone else does. Act chill, brush up the resume and apply for another job.

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

Not trying to pile on here but why do two of those faces of the 3 tweets look like pronoun warriors?

 

[SmokedMeat]

Only three more to go.

 

[diffusionx]

I don't like to take pleasure in the misfortune of others, so I'll just see myself out now.

 

[ssringo]

I don't really wanna celebrate people losing their jobs but it is Kotaku...

 

[Denton]

One person does not exactly sound like "round of layoffs"

 

[mitch1971]

They lost me at good writing.

 

[sendit]

 

[MudoSkills]

 

[ReBurn]

Oh no

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

oh no. now how am i going to be informed of all things gaming?!?!

 

[Hudo]

Would produce higher quality articles as well.

 

[Kenneth Haight]

 

[AmuroChan]

Fun fact: if you were actually making money for the company, you wouldn't be fired.

Cry me a river.

Came here just for this gif. Thank you.

Man, I need to rewatch this movie. Been a long time since I've seen it.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

On the plus side at least Gawker Media (parent company of Kotaku) did the firings after Christmas. lol

 

[AJUMP23]

When will they lay off everyone. That is what I want to see.

 

[Robb]

"I fear that management has no understanding of how vital great editing is to great writing"

Sounds like they understand it perfectly tbh. Why have all those editors hired if the writing is still crap either way?

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

AI gonna replace ya

 

[ManaByte]

Holy shit at the arrogance.

 

[ChuckeRearmed]

They can replaced with ChatGPT and nobody would tell a difference.

Sorry for the derail but what movie is this? its doing my head in that i can't remember.

 

[Chuck Berry]

Holy shit at the arrogance.

Holy shit at that definitely not being a woman

 

[ssringo]

Why does one of them not look like a pronoun warrior?

 

[Valt7786]

Because they are, that's what Kotaku consists of as it's "talent".

NeoGaf: I hate partisan politics in gaming
NeoGaf: Let's mock people for losing their jobs because I don't like their politics

Kotaku sucks and I don't read that site but it's ghoulish and bad karma to be giddily mocking job losses IMO.

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

Why does one of them not look like a pronoun warrior?

Because there's no human face

 

[Disco Dave]

The Kotaku YouTube channel has 350k subscribers yet their videos are barely scraping 1000 views. I'd wager the main Kotaku site doesn't get much traffic either.

Go click bait, go broke.

The world biggest "nothing of value was lost" case.

Society lost nothing reading those clowns.

The double standards on here can be too much lol.

 

[cormack12]

I'd like to say this will badly affect their output. But that would be bullshit.

And do they mean these articles were worse before being edited? That Carolyn woman was from femfreq too wasn't she?

 

[LordCBH]

Hopefully there's more. Fuck Kotaku.

 

[Del_X]

Good. Fuck these losers.
