It's a real shame that Reddit seems to care this little about the community that rather than making an effort to talk to developers and moderators and apologize for how this was handled, they'd rather just wall themselves off and and dare users to keep going. https://www.theverge.com/2023/6/13/23759559/reddit-internal-memo-api-pricing-changes-steve-huffman

      And he’s another example of the classic Reddit moment. Prior to him they had a CEO everyone hated and Steve came in after she left, except it later transpired that she wasn’t the cause of the issues the community revolted about.

        Remember when people used to say “you can’t bullshit reddit”

        Well turns out Reddit was incredibly easy to bullshit

    Good to see he’s at least open to rectifying things if reddit ever gets it shit together.

      I’m hoping we band together enough on here so that we don’t ever have to think about Reddit again

        I agree, I’m a little concerned it might be quiet here but I’m excited by the prospect of playing with a new toy xD

        I feel the same. I’m liking the vibe here. Reddit should go the way of Digg.
