I was angry about everything happening with Reddit but honestly I care less and less. It’s like watching Twitter self destruct at this point.
Wait holy shit they locked the ORIGINAL ICON behind a paywall?
such innovation!
Holy shit it’s real and it is the official app. WTF.
What’s new: “changes to improve your overall experience “. Haha. Sure.
“changes to improve” increase profit margins
“your overall experience” sadism
I can’t believe that they chose such an ugly icon
For what reason, most people doesn’t even know that they could change the icon, free or not
Unless they put a welcome tutorial like “hate the icon design? Now you can pay to restore it to normal!”
Now this, really some people needs more fire to abandond that hell hole
lol holy shit.
How does he get to charge for the original icon? How the fuck does that even happen?
What a fucking shitshow.
Doge? Seriously?? This whole Spez following Elon’s footsteps is almost as cringe as Elon himself.
fuck spez, viva la fediverse
actually though how do you justify charging for your normal bloody unaltered logo lmfao
i see why they suddenly decided to destroy third party apps 💀
I love pixelated stuff and this is still absolutely baffling to me
Wtf, who’s coming up with these changes. I’m legit impressed with how many bad PR moves they can make back to back
He’s gotta keep up with his dream daddy Elon.
It’s like they are taking advice out of Musk’s playbook on how to blow away money.
Spez has said in interviews he likes how Musk runs Twitter and wants to emulate that.
it’s like they want people to leave
Can’t have the plebs communicating and organizing freely on the likes of twit or redd!
All comms must be filtered through the fair and totally unbiased lens of corporate news media. Those millionaire anchors and billionaire C-suites are on our side, after all.
Right?

Does just spez just sit around all day thinking up ways to piss off the most amount of people in the shortest amount of time?
But let’s be honest. The people still frequenting Reddit clearly don’t care about the shitshow that place has turned into and aren’t likely to be turned off by a new app icon.
It seems most of the idiots that like to suck spez dick all like it as a tiktok alternative so they can feel superior to tiktok viewers.
To be fair, it’s not the only free one that works. Narwhal still works, as do a couple others
I got the new icon, and I thought it was going to be tied into some promotion or something. You know, “We’re going 8 bit for a month!” But then nothing ever came - no promotion, no explanation.
It’s because they’re bringing back r/place
Oh. Oh yeah. That makes sense.
