Nah, deleted that shit as soon as they announced the API.

I saw the writing on the wall.

"An in depth analysis of the crisis we are currently living"

No offence to OP, but that's quite little OTT, no?

It's a forum owned by a corporation who are handling certain management aspects poorly. Its not exactly global warming or COVID when there was no vaccines available...

I like how he's finally admitted this was pretty much about the third party apps, but has done so in the most stupidest, roundabout way possible.

Anyone who is even remotely competent could've figured out a way to keep third party apps and make money (having apps only login for monthly-subscription paying reddit users like Spotify, half the cost of the APIs, buyout third party apps) but no, Huffman has to have it his way.

And people at Reddit trying to spin this as the people protesting inconvenieincing a glorified forum board, massive eye rolls. Felt like DARVO all over again.
