Just be glad you're on Android and have alternatives to this. Poor Apple users are stuck with whatever Apple decided to do with the app store.

It's been said a million times, but piracy is an accessibility issue. Chasing your favorite shows across streaming platforms is exhausting.
I think they do understand this, to a point. That's why they keep threatening their mods instead of outright removing them.
I wonder if public freakouts was told to remove the NSFW tag. That sub definitely should have been NSFW all along.
There is a whole set of users who apparently think the mods are in the wrong and that Reddit is right. Whether these are real users, and not armies of bots using ChatGPT to generate content, is up for debate. (But they're definitely bots lol)
What's crazy is that Reddit admins have so much more to lose by removing these moderators than the mods themselves do, but the mods have somehow convinced themselves that they have to stay, no matter how bad it is.

Or don't use it.
Yeah, it's a bit naive to think this can't go the exact same way XMPP did.
That was the event that changed me from "sure, I'll wait out a two day protest" to "wow, I should stop using this website."
For me, it wasn't so much the loss of third party apps as it was the way the admins handled it. I had never realized how little they actually valued their community. Instead, everything was about the money. Too bad they failed to see that users and the content they created was the reason Reddit was worth anything in the first place.
I bet spez is really regretting that "landed gentry" comment now. IAmA is one of reddit's most well-known communities.
Yeah, one glance at the terms of use had me uninstalling the app. I don't feel like "decentralized social media" and "sale of personal data" pair well together.
