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’m very similar. I actually just used the official app, but just seeing the way they responded made me leave
The fact that spez just bald-faced lied about what was said in his call with the Apollo dev was a huge red flag for me.
Bold faced*
Doesn’t matter*

Huh, TIL. Never sat right with me as a bearded man, perfectly capable of lying, but makes sense that its meant to convey “without a face cover.”
even this tiny civil exchange already makes me happy for jumping the boat. (also was always kinda sad for missing out on the early years of reddit; lemmy have no mo fomo)
TIL too! My mother always said bald-faced lie to me as a teenager and so when you corrected it to bold-faced I was like … no that can’t be right. Lol
Bare-arsed*
Bare assed lie… I like it.
No. It’s bald-faced.
Bone apple tea*
I just got tired of being on a site that won’t just ban you for saying Nazis should be punched, they’ll ban you for calling them mean names.
nazi shouldn’t be punch?
I don’t think that punch made from nazis would taste very good.
I got banned for saying if I saw someone stealing from a store, I’d follow them to their car and cut the valve stems off their tires. Cuz, ya know - vandalizing someone’s car is illegal.
Yo what was the context? Was it a store dedicated to feeding orphans? why would you care?
I care because every theft means I pay more the next time I shop. When someone steals from a store I patronize, they’re stealing from me. I was commenting on a post about stealing from Home Depot.
Somewhere out there in meatspace just after you hit reply, a capitalist just came in his pants.
I got banned from Jnomil about a post on some little shit kid who like to creep under bathroom stalls and kink on people taking a shit.
I suggested a little shot of piss would be corrective. Banned.
But it’s okay for some little shit to invade people’s bathroom privacy.
