We tried so hard and got so far But in the end, it doesn’t even matter They had to fall - to lose it all But in the end, it doesn’t even matter
So long and thanks for all the fish, we’re all lemmings now.

Reddit really is killing the goose that laid the golden egg. An affordable option for API use would have been a good compromise but Spez cant take his head out of his own ass.
This. What these CEOs refuse to understand is that THEY have nothing to do with success of social media companies. It was the contributions that ordinary people brought to Reddit that gave it its value.
This is by design. They’ve got us arguing about the api price, when their goal was to kill off third party apps and get all users on their app so they can data mine us. And the ridiculous api price is a secondary bonus for them, since AI and LLM companies will gladly pay it to sick up the content on the platform.
And the sad part is that it seems like 99 % of Reddit’s population don’t care the slightest about that and are happily enjoying the ad- and telemetry infested piece of garbage Spez wants to shove down our throats.
They will also gradually turn away from the platform as the content quality deteriorates. But it’ll be a slow process.
