I was already entertaining the idea of a Lemmy switch after they announced the imminent death of my beloved RiF. Lemmy was mentioned many many times in the 3rd party app threads discussing the api changes.

They went ahead and hastened my transition by permabanning me (and two of my alts) for "report abuse" since I dared to regularly report all the obvious spam bots that filled so many subs. Meh. I could have made more alts but really just didn't give a fuck at that point. Sure hope Spez's pedo ass enjoys his already failing IPO.
