When you’re doing obviously shitty things there’s no way to answer questions other than deflect and dodge. His PR team did the best they could lol

Don’t think anyone was confused about how to exercise free will. The criticism is on needing/having the process. Everyone understands why it exists. Some just think it’s a poor reason.
Why would you third party for an open source project? Just add your function directly in the source
I agree with all the responses but based on the Apollo post I think the average user was making something like 300 requests per day? Isn’t the 100 per minute rate limit more than sufficient for the average user or am I missing something? Either way the timeline, NSFW restriction and everything else is just stupid so I fully agree on that. Was just not getting the pricing part. 😁
I’m not super technical but can someone please explain why the third party apps can’t just require each user to enter their own oauth token? That way all the API calls get tied to the users instead of the app and there’s no cost. Am I misunderstanding something?
I get the impression that owners of large servers aren’t too interested in the growth from Reddit. I think some post even said that using “Reddit refugee” as a reason for application for an account is gonna get you rejected.
Sustained or not ultimately it’s a big circlejerk of all the rich people trading money amongst each other that they siphon off of us 🤷🏻♂️
I feel like the vast majority of casual users won’t really bother switching. I only bothered cos Reddit was the only thing even remotely close to social media that I used
I hate to be harsh but can we stop fooling ourselves here? Many large subreddits have already ended their blackout and are continuing as if nothing ever happened. The mods are continuing to slave away for free. The blackout itself barely made a dent in activity. I usually don’t care to comment but even Lemmy is getting infected with comments/posts of people patting themselves on the back for achieving virtually nothing.
I’m not saying Reddit isn’t reliant on users but these blackout and “mass” exodus movements are meaningless gestures. I literally only moved to Lemmy because RiF is closing.
