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.
And Russia won the war in Ukraine and Donald Trump won the election in 2020.
Do you think reddit lost? Because they seem totally fine to me.
As a privately held business, we have no clue. Only the directors of the company and the board truly know what impact was made, and even then I would not be typing this on this app were it not for Reddit’s behaviors. The effect may not even be immediate - it’s now clear to many many people what value lies in developing an alternative that’s for everyone instead of something niche for those right wing groups censored/banned by Reddit.
Give it time.
Hopefully… you are right.
Lolwut?
You guys can’t read, can ya? I am agreeing with the idea that things were supposed to happen didn’t happen.
