Jesus, this is escalating fast. I never actually thought admins would go to such crazy lengths. Such pathetic desperation!

I fully expected Reddit to fight dirty, but itā€™s still surreal watching the iron hand come down against the community. Silver lining, I hope this helps accelerate the migration to the fediverse.

I remember ten years ago sharing beers with admins who visited London. Back when there was a push for developing local communities and Global Reddit Meetup Day. There was good vibes and a feeling of mutual respect.

I met my wife through Reddit.

I still have so much affection for the site in my heart.

Itā€™s just wild to me how much has changed.

Really glad I never got that Snoo tattoo now.

Reddit isnā€™t the first online community I watched outgrow itself into the grave. I guess itā€™s just the cycle of social media. Hereā€™s hoping this timeā€™s different.

Iā€™m eager to see how reddit becomes a steaming turd after June 30th, that imbecile is gonna end up with nothing of value in his hands. Letā€™s see where that profit comes from then

Ironically this API issue will kill bots, which was needed.

It will only slow them temporarily you donā€™t need api for bots

Correct. Now the bots will be constantly scraping the pages of every post which will be a much bigger burden on their servers.

Yeah, itā€™ll only kill the useful ones in the long run.

Yes, at this point, there is really no fucking saving it or hoping for changes, they will go as far as they need to go to get their profits back up. It must be abandoned. The only time I ever spend on reddit is to convince people to migrate to kbin or lemmy (nicely, dont be annoying)

What really worked for me was the https://sub.rehab website. When I found that, it made me realize I need to stick with the people who actually built the subs I love ā€“ the mods. Here I am.

I find that a large majority of redditors are still somehow completely clueless about whatā€™s happening.

So I made this little formatted summary of events inviting confused redditors to lemmy/kbin if anyone wants to copy/paste; seems to get people to understand.

@OtakuAltair At this point I donā€™t care about redittors or reddit. It can go on to be wildly successful, doesnā€™t matter to me, Iā€™ve moved on.
