The last major holdouts in the protest against Reddit’s API pricing relented, abandoning the so-called “John Oliver rules” which only allowed posts featuring the TV host. It's the official end of the battle. The Reddit protest is over, and Reddit won.
I dunno - I’m here and about the only way I’ve interacted with reddit since they killed RIF is with Hermit using a suspended account (scrolling combatfootage once in a while).
Previously I upvoted and commented? Not anymore. Now I’m not important but I don’t imagine I’m completely alone…
Nah, you’re not alone. I still lurk from time to time but I dont interact anymore and I’m under the impression the quality is going way down on reddit. Interesting users are leaving the boat. I’m quite happy to be part of the fediverse and I feel like it’s definitely more aligned with the future I would like the web to be. My mental health is thanking me for leaving reddit.
